Who is Jackie Gallagher-Smith?

Jackie Gallagher-Smith is an American professional golfer who played on the LPGA Tour.

Gallagher-Smith has won once on the LPGA Tour in 1999.

Gallagher-Smith's brother, Jim Gallagher, Jr., has won on the PGA Tour, making them one of two brother/sister pairs to win on both tours. Her brother, Jeff Gallagher, has won twice on the Nationwide Tour.

Personal Life: In 2005, a former caddie, Gary Robinson filed a suit claiming that the golfer had used him as a "Sperm Donor" to get pregnant. Robinson, 26, began caddying for Gallagher-Smith in February 2004, and soon thereafter began receiving advances from her, he said. Robinson said he was in an emotional state after recently ending a long-term relationship with a girlfriend, and he passed off some early advances as "innocent playful activity."

The relationship became sexual about two months later and the two would sometimes engage in unprotected sex, he said. When rumors of the relationship began spreading around the tour, Gallagher-Smith told Robinson that he must deny they had anything but a work relationship, the suit states.

Robinson goes on to say that Gallagher-Smith told him she and her husband had been unsuccessful in conceiving a child. In July, she told Robinson she was pregnant and led him to believe he might be the father, the suit says.
