Ernie —, South African golfer who won The Open Championship in 2002 and 2012 (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

els

(Other definitions for els that I've seen before include "Ernie - - (golfer)" , "South African golfer" , "Angular distances above the horizon" , "Golfer; elevated railways" , "US urban railways" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
