Schwartzel to win a Major in 2009?

By editor - Posted on 14 October 2008

Last time I spoke to legendary European Tour coach Pete Cowen about Charl Schwartzel he indicated that he thought this South African star was one of a number of players that he coaches that has the ability to win a Major or two.  After his 3rd European Tour win at the Madrid Masters I think there is every chance that he can now cement his place at the upper echelons of the game.  I for one am going to put £20 on him winning a Major next year - if I can find some decent odds anywhere.  What does everything else think? Who is going to win the Majors in 2009 in Tiger's absence?

I'd say that Schwartzel has a chance @ a major this year.  Not sure which one, though.  Can't wait for the Masters this year! Except, I have to work actually during most of the tournament! A friend of mine told me that they're streaming the Masters on CBSSports.com. I looked it up today and it turns out they are! Here's a link for them to notify you when the streams are live: http://www.cbssports.com/golf/tournaments/masters/video

Schwartzel has got to have a chance - he's won a couple of times on tour now and definitely has what it takes to be a major champion - with a bit of luck 2009 could be his year.

Are you saying he really the best South African at the moment?  What about Els? Or Immelman as he has already won a major?

What about Tim Clark and that gob sh**e Sabbatini?
