Charl Schwartzel


Residence: Verceeniging, South Africa
DOB: 31/08/1984
Charl Schwartzel has had a cracking start to 2007, winning the Spanish Open at the National Golf Course near Madrid at the end of April. This is the South African’s second European Tour title - his first was in the 2005 Dunhill Championship in South Africa. The £225,000 cheque moved him to sixth on The European Tour Order of Merit - and into the top 50 on the Official World Golf Rankings. He attributed part of his win to having Ricci Roberts on his bag – Ernie El's caddie for the past 16 years.

 2006  American Express - World Golf Championships

28th September to 1st October 2006. From the Ryder Cup matches at the K Club in Ireland, many of the world’s best players headed across the Irish Sea to The Grove in Hertfordshire for the UK leg of the World Golf Championships. With an incredible 23 under par total, Tiger Woods demolished the field to take an astonishing 12th win out of 22 WGC events. Tiger left runners-up Ian Poulter and Adam Scott a very distant eight shots behind. The World Golf Championships are played over five continents – and feature the top 50 players from the Official World Golf Rankings along with top finishers on the money lists of six Tours comprising the International Federation of PGA Tours (PGA TOUR, European Tour, Australasian Tour, Japan Golf Tour, Asian Tour and Southern Africa Tour). The formats vary - match play, strokeplay and team - but the purses are always big. On this occasion, Tiger walked away (or rather flew away in his private jet) with over 1 million euros. Hardly worth turning up was it?!


In Charl Schwartzel's bag...
Charl's Callaway X-Tour irons can clearly be seen. We can't see under the headcovers but according to the Callaway website, what lurks beneath are are 15 degree Callaway X Fairway wood, a 9.5 degree Callaway FT-3 driver and an Odyssey White Hot XG Marxman blade.
