Three-time PGA Tour winner Bart Bryant died in a traffic accident in Florida on Tuesday when another vehicle rear ended his.

The Polk County (Florida) Sheriff's Office say Bryant was killed when a pickup slammed into the back of his Volkswagen SUV as construction workers halted traffic.

The other driver has been identified as 21-year-old Mark Farkas of Clermont. He was not injured and it's unclear why he failed to stop, although an investigation is ongoing.

Bryant was unresponsive when police found him at the scene of the crash. Medics performed CPR and brought him to a local hospital, where he later died.

Bryant's wife Donna was transported to the hospital with minor injuries.

The PGA confirmed his passing in a statement on Wednesday.

'The PGA Tour is saddened by the tragic passing of Bart Bryant and our hearts go out to his family and friends during this difficult time,' PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan said in the statement. 'The Bryants have been a part of the PGA Tour family for over four decades and we are grateful for the impact and legacy he made on our organization and countless communities. Bart will be dearly missed.'

Bryant was residing with his wife in nearby Auburndale, Florida.
