Another electric storm as Els lands fourth title in five weeks

AS a storm brewed overhead, Ernie Els completed another electric display at the Johnnie Walker Classic to land his fourth title in five incredible weeks.

The thunder and lightning over Perth held off long enough for Els to shoot a final round of 66 to win by an emphatic 10 shots with a record-breaking 29-under-par.

In 13 years as a professional Els has never played better than he has this year and the records are beginning to tumble. His 2003 season began with victory at the Mercedes Championship in Hawaii, which he clinched with a USPGA Tour record score of 31-under-par. And yesterday he set a new mark for the European and Asian tours, beating the respective records of 27-under-par with another wire-to-wire victory.
