A victory has set golf fashion legend Ernie Els firmly back on the road to success, as he looks to take a more focused approach to his game.

One of the world's best known golf fashion icons, Ernie Els, is looking to a successful future following victory in the World Golf Championships CA Championship.

A report on the PGA Tour website notes that the win is Els's third in three years after outlining his plans for world dominance in 2007.

The second win, in the Honda Classic in early 2008, contrasts with this year's event where he tied for 67th place.

Late in 2007 he had met with victory on the European Tour, but after the brace of first-place finishes the wins dried up.

The world-famous player, who is renowned for his golf fashion choices and own designs of golf apparel, tells PGA Tour chief of correspondents Helen Ross that his failures have been due to adopting too broad an approach in competition.

"I was not looking after the smaller things," he says, "meaning that just my normal mechanics in the game - the basics - I wasn't looking after that."

PGA Tour figures show Els has now claimed 17 victories on the circuit during his career, with a further 16 finishes in second and third place each.
