The last 12 months have been something of a whirlwind for Steve Stricker, with the 12-time PGA Tour winner enjoying the thrill of captaining the American Ryder Cup to victory immediately followed by a health scare that left the Wisconsin native emaciated.
But Stricker, who said he lost considerable weight while suffering from a condition that caused inflammation around his heart, is slated to return to action next week at the Insperity Invitational, the Houston stop on the PGA Tour Champions.
Stricker spent 11 days at UW Hospital last fall with an ailment that simply started as a cough.
