EXCLUSIVE Justin Rose claims golf's major calendar is 'too condensed' - with four tournaments squeezed into just 14 WEEKS
Justin Rose believes golf's major calendar is too condensed and would be improved by stretching it out by another month. With the Open commencing on Thursday and concluding on Sunday, it means the big four tournaments will have been squeezed into just 14 weeks, which has been the case since the PGA Championship switched to May from its previous slot in August back in 2019. Aside from placing an extreme premium on form in a narrow stretch of time, it also leaves a gap of around eight months between the end of one major season and the start of another. Rose is among those who feels it is a less than optimal scenario. Asked if the Masters, PGA Championship, US Open and the Open are too close together, he told Mail Sport: 'They are. If I was given a blank sheet paper and asked to work out the year, I think the majors are too condensed as they are now.' The 44-year-old, who finished second at the Open in 2024 and again at the Masters in April, added: 'Since the US Open (in June) I have played at the Scottish Open and that's it. Now we are thinking about the open. Do you know what I mean? 'I think if you could stretch it out another month, it would probably feel a bit better.'
