You know, I've been there many times. 22:58.502 --> 23:01.046 [Wilson] Justin Rose is 45 years old. 23:01.129 --> 23:04.758 On tour, he's unc, and he's leading. 23:04.841 --> 23:06.551 It may be a shock to a lot of people, 23:06.635 --> 23:11.348 but let's not forget he's been successful in every decade of his career. 23:11.431 --> 23:15.435 Sure, he has yet to win the Masters, but this is a Ryder Cup year. 23:15.519 --> 23:19.398 Ryder Cup is something that I dream about being a part of. 23:19.481 --> 23:20.774 I've missed a couple. 23:21.274 --> 23:23.235 I've only ever been picked once in the Ryder Cup. 23:23.318 --> 23:25.362 It was in '23. Luke gave me a call. 23:25.445 --> 23:28.990 I think Netflix saw that call come in live on the… in the garden. 23:29.908 --> 23:32.244 -Hi, Luke. -Well, I've got some good news, mate. 23:32.828 --> 23:34.079 You're in the team. 23:34.162 --> 23:35.831 [Justin Rose] Two other times I didn't play, 23:35.914 --> 23:37.707 I was on the wrong side of that phone call. 23:38.458 --> 23:40.335 Making the team by rights is huge. 23:40.418 --> 23:42.838 Not putting yourself in that position, waiting for the phone. 23:42.921 --> 23:44.714 You're in control of your own destiny. 23:45.465 --> 23:48.718 It's a big focus of mine this year. I'm gonna play my way into the team. 23:49.803 --> 23:54.266 If Justin can beat the best young players in the game and win the Masters, 23:54.349 --> 23:56.601 he may finally solidify himself 23:56.685 --> 24:00.438 as the best current player on the European continent. 24:02.399 --> 24:04.317 [commentator] From the Augusta National Golf Club, 24:04.401 --> 24:07.320 we're live as the third round is underway. 24:07.404 --> 24:10.282 The seasoned and brilliant Justin Rose. 24:12.367 --> 24:13.535 [man] Hold!

I lost five strokes on the greens. 25:12.260 --> 25:15.555 I walked off with 75. I turned 69 into 75. 25:16.723 --> 25:18.308 I'm super frustrated. 25:18.391 --> 25:20.477 It's an uphill battle for sure, 25:20.560 --> 25:25.065 but Sunday at Augusta, it is a sort of a spiritual day. 25:25.899 --> 25:29.528 I'm still having a good week, and I still believe there's a great round in me, 25:29.611 --> 25:33.156 and I still want to sort of realize how special it is 25:33.240 --> 25:35.575 to be playing Augusta National on the Sunday of the Masters. 25:35.659 --> 25:37.994 Like, it's still a childhood dream, right? 25:38.495 --> 25:40.205 I know I need to shift my mindset. 25:40.705 --> 25:44.042 I can prove that my game is still good enough to win at the highest level. 25:48.338 --> 25:50.340 [commentator] Everything is coming together 25:50.423 --> 25:52.259 for a memorable day of golf. 25:52.759 --> 25:56.137 It might be one of the great days the game has seen in the modern era. 25:56.763 --> 25:59.057 Now driving, Justin Rose! 25:59.140 --> 26:01.142 [cheering] 26:03.812 --> 26:08.066 I'm going into Sunday thinking, "I don't know what's going to happen, 26:08.149 --> 26:11.945 but I know I'm going to remember this day for the rest of my life." 26:18.034 --> 26:22.205 [Justin Rose] I woke up this morning just really grateful to be Sunday at Augusta. 26:22.289 --> 26:24.749 It's a special day in the game of golf, no matter what. 26:25.250 --> 26:27.002 [commentator] This for birdie at the 1st. 26:27.085 --> 26:28.461 [cheering and applause] 26:28.545 --> 26:32.674 [Justin Rose] Just kind of went into the place that you dream about going to. 26:32.757 --> 26:35.010 [commentator 2] Justin Rose for birdie. 26:36.553 --> 26:40.599 For us, I think we were just head down, in the moment, hole after hole after hole. 26:40.682 --> 26:42.058 Very much tunnel vision. 26:42.142 --> 26:43.476 [commentator 2] Let's go to 11. 26:43.560 --> 26:44.519 Justin Rose. 26:44.602 --> 26:47.856 [commentator 3] A long distance away.
