Former champion Ernie Els wants to put a horrendous 16 months behind him with a good performance at The Open beginning today. The South African, victor at Muirfield in 2002 and also a double US Open winner, is in a career slump having missed the cut in the last two majors and not recorded a first-place finish since March 2008. He has slipped from World No 1 to 24th in the rankings and is not even considered one of the contenders for the 138th Open Championship.<br /><br />"It didn't go well in the other majors but I'm looking forward to this one. My game is coming around nicely and I feel like I have a chance to win this week. I definitely feel like I have the drive and the desire to get back to winning more golf tournaments," he said. <br />
