The Story
- I wouldn't often associate the name Rosalind with an extremely attractive blonde,... but I might need to reconsider my view on the name.
For those who don't know who Charl Shwartzel is, he is the winner and reigning champ of the 2011 Masters, coming out of nowhere to win the tournament. Since then he's played extremely well and moved into the overall world top 20 ranking on the PGA. The couple first met almost five years ago, during a rough patch for Charl. Actually, rough patch might be understating it: this was a low point in Charl's life as he was coming off a bad breakup and his golf game was in shambles. Once Rosalind came around, things started to turn around. After winning some tournaments overseas Charl sent shockwaves through the golf community by finishing birdie-birdie-birdie-birdie to win the Masters. At the time Rosalind and Charl had only been married about seven months.
While golf does take up a majority of time for Charl he always makes time for his side passion, being outdoors. Both Rosalind and Charl have gone on many outdoor adventures, including one that saw them cover nearly 9,000 miles.

The Story
- The more I do golf posts the more I come to realize that golf is neck and neck with soccer in the who has the hottest wife contest. You just don't see very many C level wives in golf. Hell you really don't even see many B level.
Another perfect example is Justin Rose's wife Kate. Kate (nee Phillips) herself is no slouch in the sports field having been an acrobatic gymnast before she met Justin. Once she met Justin she gave up gymnastics and devoted her life to him and the crazy traveling lifestyle of professional golfer. After bursting onto the scene as an amateur Justin turned pro only to find difficulties establishing himself as a top tier player. However, things seemed to change once Justin met and settled down with Kate; his entire game evolved and he is now considered one of the world’s best players.
The couple married in 2006 and have two children, Leo and Charlotte. Charlotte helped kick off 2012 right for them, being born on New Year's Day of this year. The family splits time between England and Florida depending on Justin's tour schedule.

The Story
- To say 2011 was a good year for Bill Haas might be a wee bit of an understatement. For starters he made the cut in all four majors. He also ended the year with seven top ten finishes and one victory. That one victory also made him the winner of the 2011 Fed Ex Cup, and of course, when you win the Fed Ex Cup you win a lot of money. This year the winner took home $11.4 million. Bill was also a captains pick for the US team in the President's Cup. All in all not a bad 2011. Yet Bill had another major event happen in his life in 2011, he got married. In June of 2011, right smack in the middle of his best season as a pro, Bill married Julie (nee Arrington) in North Carolina.
For those that follow golf the name Haas is a very familiar name. Bill's father Jay was on the PGA Tour and his uncle Jerry was also a very good golfer. All three played golf at Wake Forest.
The little other information we have on Julie is that her mother helps Bill with his charity program, Birdies for Barbara Stone Foundation. Bill donates a certain amount of money for each birdie and eagle he scores will playing.

The Story
- We're nothing if not totally upfront with our readers. And in the name of being upfront, we'll admit we're not entirely sure what the truth is about these two and their rumored relationship. There are a lot of flat out contradictory stories floating out there about these two.
Back in 2011, American golfer Dustin Johnson was rumored to be dating one of the best looking female golfers, Natalie Gulbis, or at least we thought they were dating. This all seemed to take place at the tail end of 2010 and into 2011. There were rumors the two were dating and Natalie was seen at a few of Dustin's golf tournaments. Now call me crazy but you don't see a lot of professional female golfers frolicking around at PGA tour events, unless of course you are with one of the golfers.
Eventually, Golf.com caught up with Natalie at a tournament and she confirmed the relationship, but was apparently only speaking for herself. Immediately after that Dustin issued a statement that they pair was in fact not dating. While admitting the couple had spent time together he stated that in no way where they dating. After that the rumors slowly started to fizzle. As of the end of 2011 it didn't appear Dustin was with anyone. I've looked at far too many pictures from the 2011 Presidents Cup and have yet to see a picture of Dustin with anyone outside of Tiger, the only other single guy at the tournament (actually, who better for a single dude to hang out with? That might not have been a bad thing for Dustin).
So you can understand our reason for question. At the very least the rumors give us a reason to post pics of Natalie. You're welcome.
