The Spanish Open is a centenary tournament (dating back to 1912) and throughout its history it has had great international champions. From the legendary Massy, De Vicenzo, Palmer, Langer, Faldo or Montgomerie to the more recent Harrinton, Schwartzel or Molinari. And among the national heroes the pioneers De la Torre, Provencio, Sebastián Miguel and Morcillo. And then the triple winners Ballesteros y Rahm.
The curious thing is that one of the most successful golfers of the moment had never come close to this plethora of stars: Justin Rose. The Englishman has in his record the 2013 USA Open, the Olympic gold in Rio 16 and the FedEx Cup 18 as his main achievements, in addition to two World Cups, eight PGA Tour titles, as many on the European Tour and five more in Asia . And of course, playing mainly in America he has not had an easy time enjoying this tournament. «I am very excited to be here. I had heard very good things about Madrid and I had to come. I have come with my wife and we will try to enjoy the city a little, go sightseeing and go to restaurants. As for the course, I expected it to be a little easier due to the poor results that Jon has had here. You have to play very well, but you have to respect it, not be too aggressive,” he explains sincerely.
In just two days, Rahm’s teammate Ryder Cup, has already fallen in love with the Country Club, which “is connected to the city, with great views, and with a rolling, Spanish style. It’s exactly what you want for a tournament like this. The vibes are very good and it is very well prepared to welcome the public. I think that in the future there may be a very good team. The most important thing is to have a good date (in 2024 it will be in September, after Wentworth) and that will be a good opportunity, they just need organic growth. “All the ingredients are correct.” Now all that remains is to have a good performance, because he recognizes that he is playing well. Watch out for Rose’s talent.
