Fancourt fan Rose has scent of victory

JUSTIN ROSE is hoping some home comforts will help him to victory in the South African Airways Open this week.

Rose, who was born in Johannesburg, has spent the last two weeks at his grandmother’s home on the Fancourt Estate preparing for the £680,000 event.

“I come out to play the Fancourt courses every Christmas, and also to spend time with the family,” explained Rose, who won his first European Tour title in Johannesburg in 2002.
