Rose targets career-high ranking
The Englishman can further his claims in Shanghai after fifth-ranked Henrik Stenson pulled out, joining world number one Rory McIlroy on the sidelines.
But Rose believes it might be a step too far to close the gap on McIlroy, who also leads the Race to Dubai, over the European Tour's ‘Final Series’ of four big-money events.
"I'm not sure I can catch McIlroy, I haven't really done the math properly," said Rose at Lake Malaren Golf Club yesterday.
"The aim is to strengthen my world ranking as much as possible. If I was to play well and win a few tournaments before the end of the season, I could get myself to second place in the world rankings which would be a personal best."
