PGA Tour - FedEx St. Jude Championship             

Justin Rose secured his 12th PGA Tour victory on Sunday, staging a stunning comeback to defeat U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun in a playoff at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. The 45-year-old Englishman overcame a three-shot deficit against Tommy Fleetwood with just five holes remaining, closing with a brilliant 3-under 67. Rose's victory, his 24th worldwide, propels him back into the world's top 10 and guarantees his place in the next Ryder Cup.

Rose's late-round charge included four consecutive birdies, with his momentum carrying into the playoff. After narrowly missing a putt for the win on the 18th in regulation, he went on to make a 10-foot birdie on the third playoff hole to clinch the title.

Meanwhile, Tommy Fleetwood, who had a two-shot lead with three holes to play, suffered a heartbreaking defeat. A bogey on the 17th and a poor drive on the 18th saw him finish one shot outside of the playoff. Scottie Scheffler also finished one shot back, tying for third.

Rose was quick to praise his own performance, stating: "I played unbelievable golf down the stretch. When I bring my best, I know I'm good enough to play and to compete, and to now win against the best players in the world. Very gratifying day for me."

The tournament also saw significant movement around the FedExCup playoffs bubble, with Bud Cauley and Rickie Fowler securing their spots for the upcoming BMW Championship. Jordan Spieth, however, was among those who missed out.

Grant Forrest secured a comfortable four-shot victory at the Nexo Championship, marking his second DP World Tour title. The Scot, who last won four years and two days ago, displayed dominant form in challenging conditions at Trump International Golf Links.

Forrest started the final round with a lead that was briefly trimmed to two shots. However, a birdie on the fourth hole, coupled with a triple bogey from his playing partner, extended his lead to five. He never looked back, finishing with a final round of 72 to end the tournament on eight under par.

The win sees Forrest climb to the top of the Closing Swing rankings. Reflecting on his victory, he said, "It's amazing, just speechless... It's just a crazy game that you can go and come out and do this, with what feels out of nowhere." The win also turned around a difficult season for the World Number 294, proving that "one week can turn things around."

The 32-year-old was able to absorb a late double bogey on the 18th hole, having built up a significant lead.
