Justin Rose wins the Zurich Classic
Justin Rose claimed victory at the Zurich Classic with a bogey-free weekend to claim his 7th win on the PGA Tour, and 6th in consecutive seasons.
A 66 on the final day was good enough to see off the chasing pack by one stroke, thanks to an up-and-down birdie on the 18th hole.
With the win, Justin moves up 67 places in the FedEx Cup rankings to 15th and from 9th to 6th in the Official World Golf Rankins ahead of the WGC Cadillac Match Play in San Francisco this week.
