Justin Rose left 'gutted' after RBC Canadian Open exit, sets sights on 2025 US Open

Justin Rose had a tough week at the RBC Canadian Open. He failed to make the cut in the tournament and finished with a total score of 1 under par. The cut for this year's RBC Canadian Open was 3 under par, therefore, Rose missed it by barely two shots. Unfortunately for Rose, he received a two-stroke penalty during the second round, which dropped him below the cutline.

Justin Rose opened up about his elimination from the RBC Canadian Open on his X (formerly Twitter) account. He shared a post on his disappointing week at the TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley in Caledon, Ontario. The golfer also mentioned how much he enjoys Canada and hopes to play well there next time.

Rose even confirmed his ambition to compete in the 2025 US Open, noting that it will be his next priority.

"Thank you, as always, Canada, just gutted I won’t be around for the weekend @RBCCanadianOpen 😔 I really do love spending time in this beautiful country… 🇨🇦 🍁 Next stop @usopengolf and another USGA examination test!! 🧐"

Justin Rose received his penalty on the par-3 hole 7 during the tournament's second round. Rose found his ball in a large pile of grass following his tee shot. To make the shot clearer, the golfer reached out and removed the grass from it. Rose made the ball move slightly while doing so by accident, and according to the regulations, once the ball moves, it must be reshot from the tee.

Unfortunately, Justin Rose did not anticipate the penalty and continued to play his game. This not only resulted in a two-shot penalty but also cost him the entire tournament.
