Justin Rose won his 12th career PGA TOUR title in his 443rd start at the age 45 years, defeating J.J. Spaun with a birdie on the third playoff hole. He becomes the oldest winner on TOUR since Phil Mickelson at the 2021 PGA Championship (50 years, 11 months, 7 days).
Victory saw him climb from No. 25 to No. 4 in the FedExCup standings and he’s projected to move from No. 20 to No. 9 in the Official World Golf Ranking. The Englishman also holds the most wins on TOUR of any player from England since 1940 (second most: Nick Faldo, 9 wins)
Rose led the field with 26 total birdies this week (next best: 23, Scottie Scheffler and Tommy Fleetwood).
J.J. Spaun records third runner-up finish of the season (P2/THE PLAYERS Championship, T2/Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches), tied with Justin Thomas for the most by any player this year. It was his second playoff loss of his career (2025 PLAYERS Championship, def. by Rory McIlroy)
The 2025 U.S. Open winner records his sixth top-10 finish in 21 starts this season and moves up to No. 3 in the FedExCup standings after entering the week No. 8.
World No. 1 and FedExCup leader Scottie Scheffler (T3/-15) records his 12th consecutive top-10 finish and 14th of the season. Tommy Fleetwood (T3/-15) records the 43rd top-10 finish of his PGA TOUR career in his 162nd start, the most of any player without a win on TOUR since 1983; 36- and 54-hole outright leader cards a final-round 69 and earns his sixth top-10 finish of the season. Cameron Young (5th/-11), winner of last week’s Wyndham Championship, cards the low round of the day with a 6-under 64
