Justin Rose had a stellar first round Thursday, firing a 7-under 65 to finish the day atop the leaderboard by three strokes over the next-closest entrants. It was tied for Rose’s lowest score ever in a round at the event.

"When the big stage is there, I can kind of bring my game and still compete with the best players in the world," Rose said.

Justin Rose is still in the lead at the Masters. He suddenly has a lot of all-star company around him. Rose managed a 71 and was one shot ahead of Bryson DeChambeau.
