Nick Stavas-Todd Kelly Golfweek
Justin Rose defeated J.J. Spaun in a thrilling three-hole, sudden death playoff to win the 2025 FedEx St. Jude Championship on Sunday.
Rose made four birdies in his last five regulation holes before making birdie on two of the three playoff holes to dispatch Spaun, the 2025 U.S. Open Champion.
It’s the 12th career PGA Tour victory for Rose, who on Sunday played alongside fellow Englishman Tommy Fleetwood. Fleetwood held the 36-hole and 54-hole leads but stumbled down the stretch to finish tied for third with World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler.
Drama also unfolded in the race for the FedEx Cup, as only the top 50 in the standings after this week moved on to next week’s BMW Championship, the second leg of three legs in the 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs. Keep tabs on who’s in and who’s out of the top 50 with our FedEx Cup Playoffs bubble tracker.
