DUBAI DUTY FREE IRISH OPEN HOSTED BY THE RORY FOUNDATION


July 9, 2017


Justin Rose


Portstewart, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland

Q. How pleased are you with your week's work?
JUSTIN ROSE: Yeah, I'm very pleased. I think I can look at it in many ways this week. My short game was fantastic. I putted really, really well. Today I had six putts that touched the hole that didn't go in, so it could have been a really, really low round.

Yesterday I putted phenomenally well, felt good with the putter. Drove the ball really poorly all week until today, so really fixed that, so can take a little momentum -- every aspect of my game I feel I worked on this week and saw signs of improvement. All in all, turns out to be a top five finish or whatever, that will be a solid week when I haven't played my best golf.

Q. Just three dropped shots all week with an Open Championship at a similar golf course coming up, that must be also pleasing.
JUSTIN ROSE: Yeah, absolutely, there's a lot specific to links golf that I practiced this week, figuring out how the ball comes out of the rough, learning to play the flyer, obviously short game-wise, my short game was sharp. Made a couple of bump and runs and hopefully stuff that will stand me in good stead for Birkdale.

Q. Obviously going back there in a couple of week's time, it will bring back some very happy memories for you?
JUSTIN ROSE: Yeah, for sure, it's a course where I kind of sprang to fame I suppose. Would be nice to come full circle and wrap up The Open Championship there.
