Charl Schwartzеl, hailing from Johannesburg, South Africa, found more than just a life partner in Rosalind. Their connection runs deep, as Rosalind’s family background is steeped in sports. Her father, Brian Jacobs, worked as a golf teaching pro at Meyerton Golf Club near Schwartzel’s hometown. Rosalind herself was a ranked pro tennis player in her youth.

The couple initially crossed paths in South Africa, but their journey towards romance did not commence until 2008. At that time, the LIV golfer was dealing with the break-up that had taken a toll on both his emotions and his game. As they started dating, little did they know that their union would become a driving force behind Schwartzel’s subsequent successes. And, they got married in 2010.

Being married to a professional golfer is not an easy feat, given the demands of the sport and the solitary nature of a golfer’s pursuits. Rosalind, however, brought a unique perspective to this relationship, as her own background as a competitive athlete and her familial ties to the world of golf. In addition to her father, Mrs. Schwartzel has another familial connection to golf—her cousin is none other than pro golfer Justin Rose.

In an interview with Augusta.com, Schwartzel emphasized the importance of her prеsеncе in his life, saying, “It can be a very, very lonely life. To have someone out there, I don’t have to worry too much. She’s very independent and goes out and does things. But she’s out there walking with me for support in rain and wind. That means a lot.”

Rosalind’s tеnnis background, combined with her father’s role as a golf pro, positioned her as an ideal companion for Schwartzel. A golfer’s life, as the South African aptly describes, can be a “very selfish life,” and not everyone comprehends the sacrifices it demands. However, with Rosalind, Charl found a partner who not only understood but actively embracеd the challenges associated with the profession.

The Schwartzel family expanded with the arrival of their daughter, Olivia. In an interview with Augusta.com, Charl expressed his excitement about fatherhood, recognizing the potential impact it could have on his golf career.

A defining moment in Charl Schwartzel’s career was his victory at the 2011 Masters Tournament, a triumph that not only sеcurеd his place in golf history but also marked a significant chapter for the Schwartzel family. Rosalind, speaking to Augusta.com, reflected on the experience, stating, “To see him succeed in what he loves is great; to see him win that day was phenomenal.”
