I saw this mentioned in an AP story. From an interview at the BMW last week. Not enough rounds, but shows fine taste.
Q. Could you give us just for laughs the boys' trip last week, who those guys are? Apparently you do this annually and when you usually do it and where all you guys played and what you did?
JUSTIN ROSE: Yeah, well, it's called the J.R. Challenge, my namesake. We play for a little trophy. But really it's just a good excuse to get together with my oldest friends, guys I've known since I was about ten years old, guys who -- they'd be the guys that you'd call up if you ever needed something, English guys. They've known me through thick and thin, they've known me before I turned pro, just your real hard-core true friends.
It's nice to get that with them with them once a year. I don't really talk to them much during the year, but we get together once a year and it's just like old times. And the idea is we've done it in Florida, we used it as my bachelor party in Vegas one year, did it in the Bahamas. It's six, seven years going now.
Q. Did you play golf at Long Island?
JUSTIN ROSE: Yeah, played golf on Long Island. We went to Manhattan one night, watched the tennis, had a night out, played four rounds of golf in six days, and that was it, yeah, good fun. Good preparation, I guess.
Q. Where did you play?
JUSTIN ROSE: Played Sebonack, National, Garden City Men's Club and Friars Head. It was a pretty dodgy rotation.
