'A CROSS BETWEEN A GOLD TOURNAMENT AND A CARNIVAL'

Justin Rose, the universe's first Olympic golf champion for 112 years, is feeling pretty good about his gold medal.

"Oh my God. That felt better than anything I've ever won. It was the best tournament I've ever done. It felt like a cross between a golf tournament and a carnival. It was unique, incredible," the 36-year-old Briton said.

"Coming up with that last pitch when I needed it was magical. Hopefully we've shown Brazil what golf is about. I'm glad it was close, not for my nerves, for golf. It took world-class golf to win today."

And that's from a man who has also won a Major.
