Justin Rose has a major championship win to his name, the 2013 U.S. Open, and since then he has not finished outside of the top 15 at Augusta. He has finished second or tied for second or twice and inside the top 10 one other time.
Rose is fresh off a FedExCup Championship win and is ranked number one in the world for a reason. He has been very consistent in top 10 finishes since last season, racking up a total of 14 in his last 19 events worldwide. That includes a win last season at the Fort Worth Invitational, a win at the Turkish Airlines Open, a win at the Farmers Insurance Open, three second-place finishes, and two third-place finishes.
Even though he finished tied for second at Augusta with Phil Mickelson in 2015 behind Jordan Spieth, he was four strokes behind the young Texan and it never really felt like he had a chance at a win. In 2017, Rose nearly captured a second major championship win, but lost to Sergio Garcia in a sudden-death playoff that lasted only one hole.
Rose plays well at Augusta, and at this point in his career he doesn’t get rattled by the stage.
