WINS (1)
2011 Masters – Birdied the final four holes to win by two strokes over Adam Scott and Jason Day at Augusta National ... Emerged from a pack of contenders in a final round in which eight different players held a share of the lead ... His 66 was the low score in the final round ... Became third South African to win the Masters (Gary Player, Trevor Immelman) ... Said Schwartzel: "It's a dream for me. It's obviously the highlight in my golfing career by a long way. You know, I always thought if there was one that I would win, it would be this one. This is the sort of golf course that suits my eye."
