00:00DRS after round number one, Rose atop the leaderboard.
00:03The fifth time he has been the round one leader at Augusta National.
00:08Seven under par, a spectacular opening round 65.
00:13Justin Rose in command, even making a bogey on his final hole.
00:17The 18th to finish at seven under, matching his best at Augusta in his career history.
00:24The fifth time that Justin Rose has led the Masters after round number one.
00:30Moving past Jack Nicklaus yesterday for the most times that any golfer has ever led after round number one at the Masters.
00:37Pretty incredible there for Justin Rose at that seven under.
00:39And also from Justin Rose playing that 18th hole.
00:42Here's what I love about veterans here.
00:44You're minus eight.
00:45Like, okay, I hit a bad tee shot.
00:47If you were a little bit younger in your age and not as wise as you need to be,
00:50you might have tried to play a circus shot out of the straw going, you know what?
00:54I'm going to get this up by the green, chip up, and still par this.
00:56All he did was flick the pitching wedge 20 yards to the left, said, you know what?
01:01I'm taking six out of play.
01:03Let me just get my bogey and get out of here.
01:05That's the sign of maturity here, and that's what you need to win some of these tournaments.
01:08A three-shot lead overnight, that was ultra impressive because I don't think anybody had Justin Rose on the top of their card,
01:14particularly round number one, even to challenge for a Masters green jacket this season.
01:17But that's fantastic to see it play out.
01:19We'll see how he does today.
01:21If he holds up his end of the bargain, I don't mean shooting 65 again.
01:24Let's just say he goes high 60, 68, 69 in that range.
01:28Then you're in for it and say, you know what?
01:29He might be in this race all the way through.
