Rose shines out in Turkey

-

JUSTIN ROSE will fully celebrate his second spell as world No 1 after capping an extraordin­ary run of golf with the first successful title defence of his career in the Turkish Airlines Open. Rose defeated China’s Haotong Li on the first play-off hole after the pair had finished tied on 17 under par following a nervy finish at the Regnum Carya Resort. Meanwhile, finishing tied 35th meant Pádraig Harrington missed out on an automatic place in the field for the Nedbank Challenge to keep alive his bid to reach the DP World Tour Championsh­ip. Shane Lowry finished 14th while Paul Dunne was 18th.
