Golfer a doubt for Masters as wife put in induced coma

Australian golfer Marc Leishman could miss next week’s trip to Georgia.

MARC LEISHMAN MAY miss next week’s Masters, as he remains with his hospitalised wife.

According to the Australian Associated Press, Audrey Leishman thought she was battling the flu, but after a visit to an urgent care centre she was admitted to hospital with pneumonia and subsequently placed in an induced coma.

In a statement to AAP, Marc said: “Our family appreciates everyone’s thoughts and concerns.

“We ask that everyone respect our privacy through this difficult period. Please keep Audrey in your prayers.”

Leishman, 31, tied for fourth at Augusta in 2013, when fellow Australian Adam Scott won the country’s first green jacket.
