PGA Tour Legend Doug Sanders Dies at 86 from Natural Causes

Former PGA Tour star Doug Sanders died of natural causes Sunday at the age of 86, according to PGATour.com. 

Sanders won 20 PGA Tour events during his career from 1956-1972, although he had zero major championships despite being a runner-up four different times with 13 total top-10 finishes in the four main tournaments. He came the closest at the 1970 Open Championship when he lost to Jack Nicklaus in a playoff.

He also competed on the Champions Tour after turning 50 years old, winning the World Seniors Invitational in 1983.

In addition to his success on the course, Sanders was well known for his colorful personality, which extended to his outfits:

"The two most frequent questions on tour were, 'What did Arnold Palmer shoot?' and 'What's Doug Sanders wearing?'" Sanders said in an interview with Golf Digest.

A Georgia native who went to the University of Florida, Sanders is a Hall of Fame member in both states.
