Description:
10 years after winning The Open for the first time, Ernie Els arrived at Royal Lytham & St Annes almost the forgotten man. He left the Champion, again. For 68 holes the Claret Jug looked destined to be lifted by a softly spoken, hugely talented Australian yet to win a Major. What transpired encapsulated the ecstasy and agony of sport. By the end of a compelling week, Adam Scott had everyone's admiration and sympathy but Els had the title, Champion Golfer of the Year. 'A Decade Apart' is an in-depth documentary that relives four historic days on the Lancashire coast, featuring exclusive footage and insightful interviews with those most deeply involved. Tiger Woods had a chance to win his fifteenth Major, Brandt Snedeker equalled an Open Championship scoring record and Graeme McDowell led the home challenge. In the end though, the spotlight fell on Els, out of the wilderness to leading man in 'A Decade Apart'.
