Justin Peter Rose is a professional golfer from England, born on July 30, 1980. He first gained attention in the media when he finished fourth at the 1998 Open Championship as an amateur. The following day, Rose turned pro, but he struggled during his first few years, making few cuts.
However, in the early 2000s, he succeeded, winning his first European Tour event in 2002 and leading the tour's Order of Merit in 2007. Rose emerged victorious at the Farmers Insurance Open on the PGA Tour in January 2019. Around this time, he announced new sponsors. He transitioned from TaylorMade Golf to Honma in a 10-club deal and switched from Adidas to Bonobos for his clothing. However, in May 2020, Rose cancelled the agreement with Honma after falling from #1 to #14 in the world rankings.
In February 2023, Rose ended his four-year winless streak by winning the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. In September 2023, Rose played for the European team at the Ryder Cup held at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club in Rome, Italy. The European team was victorious with a score of 16.5–11.5, while Rose achieved a 1–1–1, which included a loss in his Sunday singles match against Patrick Cantlay.

Justin Rose’s Driver
Over the past few years, his driver has changed at the top of his bag a few times. The TaylorMade SIM2 driver, Titleist TSi3, Ping G425 Max, and a TaylorMade M2, a 2017 model, are just a few of the types he has added. He also installed the Titleist TSi4 for a while, and it appears that his driving circumstances are still evolving today. Beginning in 2023, he was observed utilising the M2 driver again in addition to a TaylorMade Stealth 2 and a Callaway Paradym. But as of right now, it looks like he's locked with the TaylorMade M3 model, which has 8.5 degrees of loft and a Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro Orange 70 TX shaft.
Justin Rose’s Fairways
His fairway woods have both changed. He was also utilising a Cobra Radspeed Tour five-wood and a TaylorMade Stealth three-wood, although all of these models have now been discontinued. Rose carries two TaylorMade M6 woods with Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 80 TX shafts with 15 and 18-degree lofts, respectively.
Justin Rose’s Irons
Over the past several years or so, Rose has modified his irons a lot, much like most other components of his bag. Over the years, he has had blade models from TaylorMade, Mizuno, and Honma. Most recently, it appeared that he had become comfortable with a pair of Titleist 620 MBs. However, a combination set of Cobra irons has subsequently been released, consisting of Cobra King CBs from four to six irons and Cobra King MBs from seven irons to a pitching wedge. Every one of them has Project X 125 6.5 shafts installed.
Justin Rose’s Wedges
Rose was utilising three TaylorMade Hi-Toe 3 models for wedges, but TaylorMade MG4 models now stand in their place. They feature lofts of 52, 56, and 60 degrees, although he also frequently uses the 52-degree Titleist Vokey SM9. Since all of them have KBS Tour Hi-Rev 2.0 135X shafts, this appears to fluctuate periodically, although the shaft doesn't.
Justin Rose’s Putter
At last, Rose has been using an Axis1 putter for a long time now, and he does a wonderful job with it. While it does take some getting used to the feel and appearance produced by the heel counterweight, maintaining the putter's squareness during the stroke and at impact is simple once you do. The fanged form that extends behind the face is highly fashionable these days, and the ball is well-framed at address by the two outside lines on the fangs and the middle white line on the leading edge.
Justin Rose’s Golf Ball
Rose recently moved from using the TaylorMade TP5 to the Titleist Pro V1 Left Dot. Titleist states that the Pro V1 Left Dot is "designed for players seeking a more penetrating trajectory with lower long-game spin than Pro V1 but with comparable greenside control and soft feel."
