Emotional tributes have poured in from the golfing fraternity for the 36-year-old, who is focusing on spending his remaining time with his family.
The European Tour on Thursday tweeted a picture of yellow ribbons at the Firestone Country Club next to a sign saying: "Yellow ribbons for players and caddies provided to show support for PGA Tour family member Jarrod Lyle.
"Thank you for your support, thoughts and prayers for Jarrod and his family."
