Ernie els wins UK Open Golf

Well done Ernie. Bit of a gift from Scott though.

[cazzz1975]

he played a blinder, although adam scott threw it away, ernie posted a 68, so well deserved.

Well done Ernie indeed - won it with a tremendous round and a winning putt.

Adam Scott had it there for the winning but let it slip away.

Just been thinking, now that he no longer caddies for T. Woods is Steve Williams still New Zealand's most highly paid sportsman?

[HowardKennitby]

I seem to remember, a few years back, that there was French golfer who had it 'in the bag' but who went mental in a water hazard and lost a similar lead all in one go.
Can anyone enlighten me?
