Former British golfer and CBS analyst Peter Oosterhuis says he has early onset Alzheimer's disease.

The 67-year-old Oosterhuis went public with the news in Golf World's digital magazine Monday with hopes it can bring attention and raise money toward finding a cure.

Oosterhuis is a six-time Ryder Cup player from England who became part of the golf broadcast team for CBS Sports. He announced in January he was stepping away from television work.

British Open

Francesco Molinari and Memorial winner David Lingmerth are among six players who have been added to the field for the British Open. The six players were added when it became clear the Open would not fill all the spots from remaining qualifiers for the 156-man field at St. Andrews, Scotland.

The tournament will be played July 16-19.

Molinari is No. 43 in the world, but he was outside the top 50 last month for the cutoff to qualify. Lingmerth beat a strong field at the Memorial. He will be making his British Open debut. The other four players are Matt Jones, Tim Clark, Harris English and PGA Tour rookie Daniel Berger.
