Ernie Els is pictured at the 2006 Open Championship
at Hoylake. The South African started the tournament
in
terrific fashion with rounds of 68 and 65 but two
further rounds of 71 were not quite good enough to
win him a
2nd Open title,Ernie's 13 under total
leaving him 5 back on the somewhat inevitable winner
Tiger Woods.
