The 5 best players never to win The Masters

Ernie Els

How does four-time major champion Els reflect on his 23 trips to The Masters? “It was a f***ing nightmare for the most part,” he has said. “I won’t ever miss the place. I’ve got a love-hate relationship with the place. It was always almost like a curse to me. It was not a romantic deal to me.” The ‘Big Easy’ twice finished runner-up at Augusta National: in 2000, when Vijay Singh beat him to the title; and 2004, when a final hole birdie from Phil Mickelson denied him a Green Jacket.
