Ernie Els

  Ernie Els turns 40 in October and believes his woeful putting stands between him and his first major since 2002, when he won a four-man play-off at in the Open at Muirfield.

Yet back in the 1990s, Jack Nicklaus took one look at Ernie’s game and confidently predicted he would not be surprised if the South African challenged his own record 18 Major titles. Tiger

Els confessed: "I've only won three but I've been in contention in a lot of Majors in my career. I'm really working hard on my putting. It's not showing at the moment but it will start showing at some point.

"Thank God it's April and not October so I've still got three Majors left. I would really like to get one this year."
