Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, Steve Jacobson is an accomplished athlete, excelling at most all sports he plays. His athletic ability is inherited from his father, Morrie Jacobson, voted by his peers as one of the top 10 athletes of the 20th century for his soccer prowess.

Continuing his family’s sports heritage, Steve came to the USA in 1979 and was offered a soccer scholarship to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Throughout his soccer career, Steve has played with some of the greatest soccer players the world has known. But his love is golf.

Steve is a +2 handicap golfer and a former club champion at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage. Steve is considered to be one of the purest“ball strikers” by his peers.

In addition to his athletic accomplishments, Steve is a published author, having written GOLFWISE, a beginner’s guide to golf. He has also worked extensively with Special Olympics.

As a master trainer in the Tour Golf Fitness Program, his knowledge of golf and athletics and his understanding of how to improve performance through sports specific exercises, has made him one of the soon-to-be most sought out trainers in the golfing industry.
