Justin Rose has a unique style before taking his shots on the golf course. The European Ryder Cup team member played in Saturday's four-ball match against Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth and added one point to his team's overall score. He delivered an astonishing birdie putt to win the match.

Justin Rose rolls up his left sleeve and tucks it into the left armpit before his shots. The English golfer recently explained the reason behind his unique style. He said that he tries to make everything as simple as he can to concentrate on his putt.

"I’m trying to make everything as simple as I can…strip away as many excess movements as possible, so I can just focus on moving the putter very cleanly, and simply," Rose says.

Adding to his statement, Rose explained that he makes sure that his body and arms move as a unit so a tucked shirt acts as a connector between his arms and chest, which helps him to take a perfect shot.

"I want my arms and body to move as a unit. The shirt sleeve is a little reminder to keep that connection between my arms and chest, so everything moves as one," he added.

His technique helped him and he won a four-ball match on Saturday. Justin Rose did not play on Friday.

He has only played one match so far at the Ryder Cup and emerged victoriously. He was paired up with Robert MacIntyre and registered a 3&2 victory over Thomas and Spieth.
