And she is present on the greens whenever she can. She was also there during his first win at the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open. In fact, when Jaeger made his first Tour win, she said, “The hard work that he has put in, especially in the last year and a half, just to watch it. I’m, like, ‘Oh, My God.’ Like, he’s been through a lot. He has become a dad, he has lost his dad, all within the same time frame. And he’s just… he stepped up. And he is… I don’t even know. It is insane. The amount of progress he has made in a year, and I couldn’t be more happy for him.” 

Jaeger was motivated in 2022 to be a better person after the passing of his father on March 11, coinciding with the conception of his son Fritz that same week. After his first PGA Tour win, he said on Sunday, “You lose a life and you gain a life.” However, despite Jaeger’s immense loss, it is indeed great to know Shelby Jaeger was by his side. And, hopefully, everything will be fine for Jaeger at Augusta National!
