Top-ranked Justin Rose holds off Adam Scott to win Farmers Insurance Open

SAN DIEGO -- Justin Rose overcame a few nervous moments early with enough key putts down the stretch for a 3-under 69 and a two-stroke victory over Adam Scott in the Farmers Insurance Open on Sunday.

Rose had a three-shot lead shrink to a single shot with his third bogey in five holes to start the final round at Torrey Pines. He restored his lead, and then had to hold off a late charge by Scott, who birdied his last four holes for a 68.

Rose expanded his lead at No. 1 in the world and won for the 10th time on the PGA Tour.
