Justin Rose Wins Farmers Insurance Open in First Wire-to-Wire Torrey Pines Victory Since 1955

The 45-year-old set the tournament’s 72-hole mark at 23 under par.

Overview

  • Rose closed with a 2-under 70 after starting Sunday six shots ahead, keeping the field at bay throughout the final round.
  • His 265 total broke the event record by one, surpassing Tiger Woods’ 1999 mark of 266 that was also matched by George Burns in 1987.
  • Si Woo Kim, Ryo Hisatsune and Pierceson Coody shared second place, with Coody’s finish likely to secure entries into upcoming signature events.
  • Rose became just the second player to lead from start to finish without ties at Torrey Pines, joining Tommy Bolt’s 1955 feat.
  • Brooks Koepka completed his PGA Tour return with a closing 70 and a warm reception, while Xander Schauffele’s week ended early after he missed the cut.
