Career

Justin Rose came to England at the age of 5 and went through a successful amateur career as a teenager, which he crowned in 1998 - before his 18th birthday - with a sensational fourth place at the Open Championship in Royal Birkdale .

A week after graduating from the major , he became a professional golfer , but initially could not assert himself. From the 2001 season, which Rose was able to complete as the 33rd of the European Tour Order of Merit , he established himself in the European elite and in 2002 he won two titles. Rose was ranked 9th in the money list at the end of that season and achieved his best ranking in the world golf rankings with 33rd place in 2003. In November 2006, he won his third tournament on the European Tour , the Australian MasterCard Masters , which already belongs to the 2007 season and is a joint event with the PGA Tour of Australasia . With another success, that at the Volvo Masters - the highly endowed final tournament of the European Tour - he was able to secure first place in the European Tour Order of Merit in the 2007 season and thus the Harry Vardon Trophy , as well as temporarily below advance the top 10 of the golf world rankings.

On the US PGA TOUR , Rose won the first tournament victory at the Memorial Tournament in June 2010 , followed by a second one month later. In 2018 he won the FedEx Cup , the final ranking of this world's largest tournament series, and thus US $ 10 million.

He played four times for England in the World Cup and was a member of the winning teams of Great Britain & Ireland in the 2003 and 2007 Seve Trophy . The 2008 Ryder Cup was Rose's first European team.

He celebrated the greatest success of his career by winning the US Open in 2013.

At the 2016 Summer Olympics , where a golf competition was held for the first time after a break of 112 years, he scored the first hole in one in the history of the Games on the fourth hole (par 3) on the first day of the game. Ultimately, he became the first Briton to win the gold medal.
