Angel Cabrera, the winner of the 2007 U.S. Open and 2009 Masters, can return to PGA play after being released from an Argentinian prison in August.

The 54-year-old was jailed two years ago for threats and harassment against his former partners, Cecilia Torres Mana and Micaela Escudero.

In a new interview with Golf Digest, Cabrera says he is ready to move on and make amends for his "serious mistakes."

"I refused to listen to anyone and did what I wanted, how I wanted and when I wanted. That was wrong," he said. "I ask Micaela for forgiveness. I ask Celia for forgiveness. They had the bad luck of being with me when I was at my worst. 

"I wasn’t the devil, but I did bad things. I am deeply embarrassed because I disappointed the people closest to me and everyone who loves me through golf. Golf gave me everything, and I know I will never be able to repay the debt I owe this sport.

"I've made serious mistakes, but I've also paid my debts. I'm going to work as hard as I can to clean up my image. I want to recover the stature I had as an athlete. Golf is everything to me. It's my life. I have to continue."
