The five-times major winner, 54, had been recuperating at his home in northern Spain after four operations on the tumor and a course of chemotherapy.
He passed away at 0210 local time (0010 GMT), TVE reported, citing a family spokesman.
Regarded by many as golf's greatest shot-maker, Ballesteros won 87 titles worldwide, 50 of them on the European Tour.
A winner of three British Opens and two Masters titles, he also helped revive Europe's fortunes in the biennial Ryder Cup team competition.
The tumor, the size of two golf balls, was discovered after Ballesteros collapsed at Madrid airport and was rushed to a nearby hospital.

So what are we to call the new decade now that we are officially no longer in the naughties?? Personally, I'm feeling the onesies - cleverly coined by a friend of mine this morning. I am not one for making new years resolutions (although if you did, then good luck!!) as I tend to break them before they begin but here are some things that I definitely want to do this year.
A TRIP TO MADRID
I have wanted to go for ages and ages!!! I have met some great people from Madrid in the past couple of years and it just really appeals to me. I have also been ogling stylish Spaniards at the the recent Pull & Bear launch party in Madrid on Icanteachyouhowtodoit.com and kate loves me.
PICK UP A JIL SANDER CANDY MAN BF???!
Lolz - I want one! I actually really loved this (Jil Sander Menswear Spring Summer 11). It's not often you see boys colour blocking brights. I think it's hot.
That's it for now. I am sure I will be adding a lot more to the list as the year goes on.
Here's to the onesies :)
