About Casey Jarvis

Casey Jarvis (born 28 July 2003) is a South African professional golfer who plays on the European Tour and Sunshine Tour, while currently holding Special Temporary Membership on the PGA Tour. In 2023, he shot a 59 at the Stella Artois Players Championship and became Sunshine Tour Rookie of the Year before winning the Euram Bank Open in Austria.

Early life and amateur career Jarvis was born and grew up in Boksburg, South Africa. He had a successful amateur career and was on the national squad. He won the 2019 Junior Golf World Cup in Japan with the South African team, joined by Samuel Simpson, Martin Vorster and Christo Lamprecht.

In 2020, at 16, he captured the South African double, winning both the South African Stroke Play Championship and the South African Amateur Championship.

Jarvis also won on South Africa's development tour, the Big Easy Tour, a few weeks before he turned professional following the Western Amateur.

At age 19, he become the second youngest person to shoot a 59, in the third round of the 2023 Stella Artois Players Championship.

Jarvis's results in Sunshine Tour events co-sanctioned by the Challenge Tour in early 2023 (including a second-place finish at the SDC Open) enabled him to play in further Challenge Tour events.

In February 2026, Jarvis won the Magical Kenya Open by three shots to clinch his first title on the European Tour.
