Justin Rose hasn’t yet won a green jacket, but he’s certainly put himself in prime position to make a run at one this year.
The 44-year-old Tour veteran posted an impressive opening round of 65 on Thursday to lead the field by three shots after one round.
Rose played nearly perfect golf in Round 1, posting eight birdies and only one bogey, on the par-4 18th.
His iron play and putting were particularly superb. Rose hit 14 of 18 greens, and averaged 1.39 putts per hole.
