Ernie Els won The Open championship!

[Picard]

Wow!

I thought he was on his way to retirement.

This was unexpected and a pleasure to watch. You have to feel for Adam Scott, but great to see Ernie at the top.

Ernie taught Adam well...

And we love nothing better than beating an Aussie

[joeymojo]

Well done Ernie.

[Garson007]

Really unexpected. Els is not the greatest final day golfer. I even put my jinx on in a another thread to make Scott choke (as he has done many times before).

Awesome saffa stuff! Scott is actually ok for an Aussie, can't help to feel for him.

Dr. Sherylle Calder.

That woman turns everyone she gets involved with into Champions. Only woman with two Rugby World Cup medals and endless other success stories.

So she swapped Scott's 6 and 9 iron around then...

Congrats to Ernie, as a golf lover he never won the Open, Adam Scott lost it. If it wasn't Ernie it could've been anyone else. Seems like the 4th day caught everyone out

Great round from Ernie to keep himself in contention. Had to wait a very long time for number 4!

[zamicro]

What an amazing day. Just shows us: never give up.

[Wall]

congrats Els! didn't think he had another major in him

Twas also brilliant to see an Aussie choke
