Justin Rose shot a final-round 5-under 67, overcoming an eight-shot deficit to 54-hole leader Dustin Johnson, to win the WGC-HSBC Champions by two strokes.
Rose’s triumph in Shanghai matched the third-best comeback in PGA Tour history after Johnson gagged his way to a birdie-free 5-over-par 77.
The win is Rose’s eighth of his PGA Tour career, and first since winning the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in 2015.
In just his first start of the 2017-18 season, Rose earned $1,660,000 and 550 FedExCup points.
Runner-ups Johnson (77), Henrik Stenson (70), and Brooks Koepka (71) each took home a check for $679,667 along with 218 points.
