England’s Justin Rose clinched an utterly dominant win at the Farmers Insurance Open in a new tournament record score.<\/b><\/p>\n

Rose, the 2019 winner, led by six shots before Sunday’s fourth round on Torrey Pines’ South Course and was rarely troubled over his final 18 holes.<\/p>\n

He signed for a two-under-par 70 to finish seven clear of the field on 23 under and claim his 13th PGA Tour title.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old, whose last win came at August’s FedEx St Jude Championship, picked up birdies at the sixth, eighth and ninth, with a bogey at the 12th his only blip.<\/p>\n

The previous best winning score in the tournament’s history was 22 under – by Tiger Woods in 1999 and George Burns in 1987.<\/p>\n

Rose also becomes the oldest player to secure a wire-to-wire finish on tour – leading in all four rounds – since Rocco Mediate in October 2010 aged 47.<\/p>\n

“This has been a huge win and to start the season with a win is amazing,” said Rose.<\/p>\n

“I knew 23 under was a record. I’ve grown the lead each day so I wanted to finish seven ahead rather than six. <\/p>\n

“I had my own little mini goals down the stretch which kept me focused, which was key and I managed my game well.<\/p>\n

“I’m still loving it and working hard and do believe there is some good stuff ahead of me.”<\/p>\n

American Pierceson Coody had the best round of the day – a seven-under-par 65 – which gave him a share of second place alongside South Korea’s Si Woo Kim and Japan’s Ryo Hisatsune who both shot 69s.<\/p>\n

American Jake Knapp and Germany’s Stephan Jaeger finished a further shot back. <\/p>\n

Five-time major winner Brooks Koepka, in his first tournament back on the PGA Tour since leaving LIV Golf, finished in a tie for 56th after a final round of 70.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
