BIO

Justin burst onto the scene as a fresh faced 17 year old at the 1998 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale.  Finishing 4th that week, he turned pro the next day but would struggle to adapt to life in the pro ranks as he missed 21 cuts in a row.  All credit to Justin that he overcame such a start and he has now gone on to become a Major winner, Olympic Champion, FedEx Cup winner and former world number 1. 

Justin gears his season up in order to peak for the Majors and has been a critic of the move to the compacted schedule that was introduced in 2019, “In my opinion they’re too soon. It’s too condensed. As a professional in terms of trying to peak for something, the process that’s involved in trying to do that can be detailed and it can be longer than a month. So that’s my reasoning for that.”  

Justin hasn't won since January 2019 and has seen his world ranking slip each year since 2018.

Significant info

Justin moved back to the UK from the USA in 2021.

Justin was 40 in July 2020.
