One of the game’s leading players since capturing the 2013 U.S. Open title, Justin Rose arrives here this week as one of the former champions after capturing the title in 2002 with a one-stroke triumph over Ian Poulter. As well as winning 11 times on both the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour, Rose also has a Gold Medal to his name from the 2016 Olympic Games. Will be making his first DP World Tour start of the season this week as he looks to capture a first title on European soil since successfully defending his crown at the Turkish Open in 2018 – a victory that saw him reclaim top spot in the Official World Golf Ranking.
