Chi Chi Rodriguez and His Wife are Robbed at Gunpoint Inside His Home in Puerto Rico

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Police reported that legendary golfer, Chi Chi Rodriguez, was robbed inside his home Wednesday by three assailants who stole cash and jewelry worth $500,000. Rodriguez says he’s doing just fine after being robbed at gunpoint in his home in Puerto Rico this morning.

TMZ just spoke with the 74-year-old golf legend, who told them four men broke into his place at 1:30 this morning, while he and his wife were sleeping. Chi Chi says one of the men tied up a security guard, while three other men rushed inside the home.

Chi Chi says one of the men had a pistol, the other guys were carrying zip ties and duct tape and immediately tied up the couple, though he notes they were “gentle and very respectful of my wife.”

Rodriguez says the men then proceeded to take everything in the house — jewelry, cash, personal belongings and even his wife’s wedding ring right off of her finger.

Chi Chi says the whole thing took around 45 minutes and it was the “scariest situation I’ve ever been in.” Cops and federal authorities are now on the case and so far, no arrests have been made.

Chi Chi says neither he nor his wife were injured and he’s still planning on making a publicity appearance in South Carolina this weekend.

Rodriguez is the winner of eight PGA tournaments and has 22 senior tour victories.
