With a father who was Director of Parks and Recreation for the City of Montebello, California, John grew up on a golf course. He honed his skills with the help of his older brother, Tommy, a four-time winner on the PGA TOUR. Johnny's dream foursome would include his brother, Arnold Palmer and Walter Hagen, with maybe Ben Hogan thrown in to offset Hagen. John turned professional in 1967. He played on the PGA Tour from 1968-1980 and had three 2nd place finishes. In 1995, at the age of 50, John began playing on the Champions Tour. His level of success eclipsed his PGA years. In addition to winning the 2003 Senior PGA Championship, he has enjoyed more than seventy top-10 finishes on the Champions Tour and more than $8 million in earnings. He is currently one of the most sought-after senior golfers for Pro-Am play. The type of person who has never met a stranger, John is very outgoing and a great person to be around.

Jacobs started in junior golf in Southern California. In 1951, he won the USGA National Junior Championship.

Like most pro golfers of his generation, Jacobs earned his living primarily as a club professional during his thirties and forties. He was the Director of Golf and Director of the "Tournament of Champions" (Mercedes Championship) at La Costa Hotel and Spa and The Farms Golf Club in Rancho Santa Fe, California for more than 20 years. He joined the Senior PGA Tour (now known as the Champions Tour) in 1985 and continued to play into the 2000s.
