Ernie Els the the Champions Tour

I thought with Ernie making his debut on the Champions tour that he would blow the field away with his length and skill set.

But when I saw him slowly lumber off a green today, I realized that father time has caught up to him like me.

Today is not his day, but hopefully he will make his mark out there.

I will never forget standing behind him on number 18 at the Woodlands TPC. He pulled his drive a little so that left him a 180 yard shot off of a bumpy dirt hard pan.

He looked at his lie and told his caddie I love this lie and I can get a 6 iron there over the water, I told my buddy no way.

He took a smooth Ernie swing and put it 3 feet away for birdie.
