www.cbsnews.comI don’t have live access to current news in this moment. I’ll summarize what I can confirm about Charl Schwartzel’s Masters Champions Dinner historically and where to find the latest updates.
-
Background: Each year the Masters champion hosts the Champions Dinner for past champions at Augusta National. Charl Schwartzel, who won the Masters in 2011, previously selected a South African–themed menu for the 2012 Champions Dinner. The menu was noted for featuring South African specialties and a traditional barbecue-style main course. The dinner has sometimes drawn attention for guest lists and menu choices, but detailed contemporaneous reporting is limited to a few outlets from around those years.[1][2][3]
-
More recent coverage: There have been occasional articles in the 2010s and 2020s about Masters Champions Dinner attendance and menu trends, including mentions of notable attendees and the evolving guest dynamics, but exact menus for every year are not always publicly published. For example, discussions around who attended and how they interacted at Scheffler’s 2023 dinner appeared in multiple outlets, illustrating ongoing interest in the event. A 2026 roundup mentioned absences at a Masters Champions Dinner, indicating ongoing public curiosity about who attends, but it pertains to that year’s gathering rather than Schwartzel’s specific 2012 menu.[3][4]
