Four clear with eight to play, Rose had to come through two holes of a play-off with Simon Dyson and Soren Kjeldsen for a notable double.

The 27-year-old had a double bogey seven and two bogeys as the pressure built on the back nine but he kept his cool to claim victory on the second play-off hole.

Rose's shaky back nine had given Padraig Harrington a chance to keep his money list crown, but the Dubliner's fourth place finish was not enough.

Things hotted up down the straight when Graeme McDowell made an albatross two on the long 17th to tie for the lead, while playing partner Kjeldsen then birdied the hole to go ahead on his own at two under.

He then bogeyed the last and McDowell double-bogeyed it and when Rose and Dyson birdied the 17th they were out in front at two under.

But neither could make par at the last and so they went into sudden death on one under.

All three parred the first hole, but Rose then made a 14-footer on the next and won when Dyson missed from 12.
