VIDEO: Ernie Els had an issue with the cup, triple-bogeys 1st hole

Ernie Els didn't start his day off the way he hoped with a triple-bogey on 1 at the British Open.

He's working with a 6-over 30 through six holes and remains 12 shots off the lead set by Rory McIlroy at 6-under.

You've seen better days, Ernie.
