Congratulations to ERNIE ELS on winning the Mitsubishi Electric Classic! 
THIS IS WHAT A REAL POWER COUPLE LOOKS LIKE!! 
Ernie and Liesel are inseparable, AND they stuck TOGETHER through thick and thin, they brought up their kids and makes a huge impact in the world by helping others!
The South African golfing legend, affectionately known as “The Big Easy,” has achieved greatness on the greens, but his most meaningful legacy lies in the work he and his wife, Liezl Els, have done for autism awareness.
The couple was inspired by their son Ben, who is on the autism spectrum, to create a lasting impact for families like theirs.
In 2009, Ernie and Liezl co-founded the Els for Autism Foundation, with Liezl playing a pivotal role as the driving force behind the initiative.
Her passion and relentless dedication have been instrumental in building the foundation into a global leader for autism advocacy and support.
Their flagship project, the Els Center of Excellence in Florida, provides world-class therapy, education, and recreational opportunities for individuals with autism and their families.
The center is a beacon of hope, offering resources that transform lives and empower communities.
“Autism has taught me more about patience, understanding, and life than golf ever could,”
Ernie reflected.
“And Liezl has been the heart of this journey. Her tireless commitment has made all of this possible.”
Together, the Els family has turned personal challenges into a mission of global change, proving that love and purpose can break barriers and inspire the world.
Through their foundation, they continue to offer hope to countless families while raising awareness about the challenges and opportunities of living with autism.
WHAT A LEGEND!!!
