JUSTIN ROSE hopes to go one further than his previous best and win The Masters this year.
The world 40-year-old had finished second in 2015 (tied) and 2017, and leads the way in Augusta after a stunning first round.

Who is Kate Rose?
A former international gymnast, Kate Rose (born Phillips) is a graduate from the University of Sussex and met Justin whilst an assistant at IMG.
The pair began dating in 2000 and Kate became a mainstay at tournaments as Justin overcame a dismal start to his pro career.
Rose has gone on to secure 10 PGA Tour wins and 11 European Tour triumphs, as well as his US Open Major win in 2013, with Kate regularly celebrating his victories with him out on the course.

What does the Kate and Justin Rose Foundation do?
The couple have set up the Kate and Justin Rose Foundation to help children in need.
It aims to give under-privileged kids advice on nutrition, education and experience.
Rose said: “This program is very close to our hearts because Kate and I know Blessings in a Backpack fills a crucial void for children who might otherwise go hungry. I can’t expect to play good golf if I’m not properly nourished so how can we expect kids to go a full weekend with out enough to eat and then be able to focus on learning the next school week.”
