Late birdies sets up Rose’s victory in Memphis

Becomes oldest European to win on Tour in modern era
Justin Rose produced a sensational finish at the FedEx St Jude Championship on Sunday with six birdies in his last final eight holes to win a playoff against the US Open champion, JJ Spaun.
The Englishman, who at 45 became the oldest European to win on the PGA Tour in the modern era, looked out of it after a bogey at the 12th dropped him to 12 under. That left him two off the pace with Tommy Fleetwood, Scottie Scheffler, the world No 1, and Spaun ahead of him.
