SOUNDBITE: (English) Justin Rose, World number 8 (on giving US Open trophy back)
"About a week or two ago I put it on the dresser that we have in the bedroom. I thought that we are getting into the last few weeks I am really going to enjoy (having) it. Basically, every morning I woke up I would see it. I think the biggest perk of winning the US Open was sitting in the Royal Box at Wimbledon and watching Andy Murray win there. So that was a pretty special occasion. The most fun? A couple of fun facts. Leo (his son) ate some ice cream out of it. He was the first to christen the trophy. I hadn't even had a drink out of it and he was having ice cream out of it so I got some great video out of that which will I think will last a lifetime. There's some great memories and it holds five bottles of champagne - just FYI!"
