Every day, the position of a major player in the golf world. Former World No. 1 and Olympic Champion in Rio 2016, Justin Rose has been asked to speak about his future as the first tournament of the LIV Golf Invitational Series approaches.
At 41, Justin Rose is not decided to hang up and withdraw from the great historical circuits to earn more money. He wants to focus on the possibility of winning a 2nd career major and add a new title of the PGA Tour on his track record.
Besides his victory at theUS Open 2013 at Merionhe also won the first Olympic tournament marking the return of golf to the Olympic Games in 2016 in Rio.

Rose wants to make history
If his compatriot Lee Westwoodex-world number 1 like him, clearly opted for the dissenting circuitJustin Rose does not want to mortgage his chances of continuing to make history.
He thinks some now run the risk of ruining their chances of playing in Ryder Cup or to take the captaincy in the years to come.
“It’s a risk these guys want to take by accepting the opportunity to play, he added. Today, we do not really know what sanctions can inflict historic circuits from a legal point of view. »
I’m not ready to play golf for money. I have other goals and other dreams.
Absent from the last Ryder Cup selection in Whistling Straits, the Briton is convinced that he can still win at the highest level. Which is perhaps no longer the case with Westwood.
“My goals are always the major ones. I always try to leave a trace in the history of golf. I’m not ready to play golf for money. I have other goals and other dreams. The majors and the major championships. I will do everything to protect this. »
Pour Sergio Garciathe decision seems motivated by the desire to show that he did not receive the consideration he deserved from the PGA Tour.
