English golfer Justin Rose shares lead at Bob Hope Classic
English professional golfer Justin Rose shares the second-round leading position at the prestigious Bob Hope Classic after firing a seven-under 65 on Thursday.
Justin Rose, 26, is on 12 under alongside American golf star Scott Verplank, who carded a 66.
Justin Rose, born in Johannesburg, South Africa but who has lived in the UK since the age of five said: "It actually felt like quite a tricky day out there. It felt quite windy, or windier than yesterday."
Just two months ago Justin Rose had won the Australian Masters to end a four-year title drought on the European Tour and feels he is now ready to make his mark in the United States.
"Winning is obviously difficult but, once you do it, you kind of realise it's not that big an obstacle as sometimes you see it," Justin Rose said.
"Winning in Australia at the end of the year on the European Tour was good for the confidence and makes you realise you can do it," Justin Rose added.
And commenting on the Bob Hope Classic, Justin Rose said: "I find this golf tournament a lot of fun."
