Justin Rose says his decision to reject LIV Golf has been fully vindicated.

The 45-year-old claimed his 13th PGA Tour title on Sunday, winning the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines with a tournament record score.

Four years ago, Rose turned down offers from the Saudi-backed LIV series while he was struggling for form.

Speaking after his win, Rose said staying on the PGA and European Tours allowed him to keep competing at the highest level.

He said his career goals could only be achieved by playing against the world’s best players.

Rose added that his “childhood self” would not have been happy if he had walked away from those ambitions.

In the past 18 months, he has come close to winning a second major.

He finished runner-up at the Open in 2024 and lost a Masters play-off to Rory McIlroy last year. Rose also played a key role in Europe retaining the Ryder Cup.

He says winning another major remains his biggest motivation. Rose believes his recent form shows he is still capable of adding to his 2013 US Open title.

He says he will continue to chase the dream of winning all four majors.
