Ernie Els Eager To Make Rio In 2016
/Tony Jimenez talks to Ernie Els who is growing eager to make the 2016 Olympics and maybe even allowing himself "the thought of carrying the South African flag into the stadium."
Jimenez writes:
"I never thought when I started playing this game that I would be standing here talking of playing in the Olympics but I'm really getting excited at being on the same international stage as those stars of track and field," said Els.
"It would be wonderful just to spend time with them in the environment of an Olympic Games."
Els is currently 24th in the Olympic ranking that essentially tracks who the field will consist of based on the criteria for eligibility. If you haven't looked in a while it's worth checking out.
