Justin Rose Is Luke Skywalker To Gio Valiante's Yoda!
/Okay, not really, but I'm a little tired after a long week, so I'm still struggling with this image from Tim Rosaforte in Golf World Monday.
But hey, he's got the 2013 U.S. Open trophy, so whatever it takes.
As he prepared last week at Lake Nona for the 113th U.S. Open, Justin Rose did more than beat balls, work out and review his game plan for Merion. He watched a YouTube download of "The Empire Strikes Back." The scene that sport psychologist Gio Valiante wanted Rose to absorb was Yoda's famous discussion with Luke Skywalker. "I wanted him to know he was ready," Valiante said Sunday from his home in Orlando. "That he was finally mature enough to come into his own."
Could this be the clip in question?
No, it's this one. Thanks reader Ryan:
