(Reuters) - The son and daughter-in-law of the first African-American golfer on the PGA Tour were charged with improperly spending more than $1 million belonging to the late legendary Charles Sifford Sr, officials said on Tuesday.

A Cuyahoga County grand jury indicted Sifford's son, Craig Sifford, 48, and daughter-in-law, Sandra Sifford, 48, both of Brecksville, Ohio, with spending money meant for Charles Sifford's care on such items as travel, dining, clothes, jewellery and landscaping between 2010 and 2013, according to a statement released by the Ohio attorney general's office and the Cuyahoga County prosecutor's office.
