Overview

  • Rose birdied four straight holes from 14 to 17, making six birdies in his last eight holes to force a three-hole sudden-death playoff.
  • He sank a decisive birdie on the third playoff hole to edge U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun and earn his first PGA Tour victory since Pebble Beach 2023.
  • The win, Rose’s 12th PGA Tour title, delivered a $3.6 million prize and 2,000 FedExCup points in the FedExCup Playoffs opener at TPC Southwind.
  • Overnight leader Tommy Fleetwood bogeyed the 17th to finish one stroke out of contention, extending his streak of near-misses on the PGA Tour.
  • Rose’s surge moves him inside the top 50 in FedExCup standings, locking in a spot at the BMW Championship and boosting his Ryder Cup credentials.
