‘Just Heartbreaking’: LPGA Pro Pens Emotional Message as Athletic Legend Breathes Her Last After Cancer Battle

Medals and records are how sport keeps score, but they rarely explain why a whole country goes quiet. On Sunday, Irish sport lost Ciara Mageean at 34. The tributes came from across Irish sport, including from LPGA pro Leona Maguire , who posted a short message that said more than most obituaries. Maguire shared it on her Instagram story: “Just heartbreaking. A legend in every sense of the word, gone too soon. The world is less bright today without Ciara’s smile Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam ”.
