Xander Schauffele's Ethnicity

Xander Schauffele is of German-French-Taiwanese ethnicity.

Schauffele, born on October 25, 1993, in San Diego, California, to a French/German immigrant father, Stephan, and a Taiwanese mother, Chen Ping-Yi, was raised in Japan. In an interview with the PGA Tour in October 2024, Schauffele described his multicultural background, saying:

"My dad's half French, half German, and my mom was born in Chinese Taipei and grew up here in Japan."

Throughout his golfing career, he has only had his father as his swing tutor. As a result of Schauffele's emphasis on fundamental golf club mechanics and ball flight laws in his teaching methods, he did not observe his own swing until he was about 18 years old.
