Page "Ernie Els" Paragraph 5

Els married his wife Liezl in 1998 in Cape Town and they have two children, Samantha and Ben.

In 2008 after Els started to display an " Autism Speaks " logo on his golf bag it was announced that their then five year old son was autistic.

Their main residence is at the Wentworth Estate near Wentworth Golf Club in the south of England.

However, they also split time between South Africa and their family home in Jupiter, Florida, in order to get better treatment for Ben's autism.
