Full name: Juan Antonio Rodríguez, Height: 5 ft 7 inches. World Golf Hall of Fame member Chi Chi Rodriguez dies at age 88, August 8, 2024, in Clearwater, FL USA His father worked tirelessly cutting sugar cane with a machete in Rodriguez’s hometown of Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico, yet never made more than $18 in a given week. By the time he was 7, Rodriguez joined his father in hard labor, earning money as a water carrier on a plantation. It came just three years after the youngest and frailest of six children nearly died from rickets and tropical sprue.
