Ernie is a genuinely great guy. I've met with him a few times and he is someone to root for. Same goes for Trevor Immelman. Both South Africans.

The setting for this meeting is about the best tiki bar in the world. The Square Grouper (look up the meaning of the term "square grouper") is just an awesome spot in an awesome location. Nice job Ernie.

I was going to point that out being a golf fanatic. Throughout the years, Els was very consistent in answering media questions about Tiger, and he obliges them..even though it might irritate the average golfer but Els answers amicably and in a polite manner.

I always have, and always will, love Ernie Els, now even more so. What a human being! A great guy.

I was pulling for the African to win the Masters. It’s good to see him having a good year.

I used to go snorkeling in the park on the Jupiter Inlet. It is a very nice spot. The water was incredibly clear.

What a contrast to that self-absorbed POS Tiger.

Talk about a golfer who has played with pain. I’m sure he can appreciate what these fine young men have gone thru.

altho buying guys on crutches and in wheelchairs multiple rounds of beers is not without risk.. but the gesture is genuine nonetheless. 8-]

I’d like to see him have a run like VJ had and have him give Tiger a good run.
