Ernie Els made four pars at the last 4 holes to win the rain-delayed Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill on Monday.

He finished with a one-under-par 71 Monday and an 11-under 277 overall to win by two shots over Kevin Na and Edoardo Molinari.

With back-to-back victories for Ernie Els, (he won the World Golf Championship at Doral two weeks ago) you cannot help but to feel the “Big Easy” might have a shot at the green jacket in a fortnights’ time.

The Augusta National Masters  starts the 8 th April.

This victory came with a nice check worth $1.08 million and put Els atop the PGA Tour money list with more than $3 million. He Also moves to No 7 in the world.
