"Multiple major titles elevate players into another category with the way they are viewed, as Rose is aware, but he isn't sure it would do much for him. Rose won gold in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, becoming golf's first Olympic champion in 112 years. The 45-year-old from England has won more than $78 million and is still going strong, with a seven-shot victory this year at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines and a tie for third at the Masters.
