Dan Moschetti, the host of a widely syndicated radio show about golf, died Tuesday of a sudden heart attack in his studio, his wife said. He was 53.

Moschetti, who had been diagnosed two years ago with heart disease, suffered a heart attack at his desk at The Golf Guys' Radio Show, according to his wife and producer, Diane Moschetti.

Dan Moschetti died just minutes after being interviewed on-air by a San Francisco radio station.

The California native was the creator and host of the humorous, anything-goes show, which he began for fun in 1998 with several friends who were also golf fans. The show has been broadcast on 800 stations in 160 countries.

Moschetti and his son, Doug, also had hosted the morning show at KION Radio in Salinas for almost two years, the station said. He recently toured with the USO in Korea.

Before going into broadcasting, Moschetti was an entrepreneur whose businesses included a golfing store.

Moschetti is survived by his wife and five children, four from a previous marriage.
