Rose Unfazed by Last Year's Near-Miss at The Masters

Justin Rose remains unfazed by the pressure to redeem himself after last year's heartbreaking playoff loss at The Masters. Following a strong start at Augusta National, Rose is once again in contention for a major victory. With rounds of 70 and 69, he's challenging for the top spot, undeterred by his previous near-misses. Rose reflected on his past experiences, saying they've taught him that he can win at The Masters. He's drawing energy from the crowd and focusing on enjoying the tournament. Rose emphasized the importance of staying loose and having fun, even when playing well. The former world No 1 recovered from a tough start to post four birdies in a five-hole stretch. He's adopting a controlled approach, mixing patience with aggression. Rose acknowledged that while there were some missed putts, he's satisfied with his overall performance. Fellow Englishman Tyrrell Hatton is also in the mix, having carded a six-under 66. Hatton posted seven birdies before bogeying the final hole, but remains optimistic about his chances. World No 1 Scottie Scheffler had a disappointing day, bogeying both par-fives on the second nine. Despite this, he's confident in his abilities and is looking to bounce back.
