Very few could have predicted Justin Rose’s impressive 2026 Masters final round surge — except, perhaps, Rose himself.
The English golfer — who has yet to earn a green jacket in his pro golf career — surged to the top of the leaderboard on the last day of the tournament on Sunday, April 12, at Augusta National.
The golfer is currently tied for second place at the time of publication with only a few holes left to play.
On Sunday morning, Rose, 45, posted a seemingly prophetic affirmation on his social media account ahead of the round.

“I said it last year…. I’ll say it again…. Let’s have a day! ??,” he shared via X, along with a photo of a sign outside of Augusta National.
The comment section of the potentially historic post were filled with positive messages from fans.
“You’d look good in green Rosey, Have a day!” commented one user.
“Best of luck today, would love to see you finally win this. ?,” said another.
Rose was on the precipice of winning the 2025 Masters Tournament last year, losing in the playoff to Rory McIlroy.

“The playoffs … it always ends so quickly,” Rose said after the 2025 tournament. “It’s sudden death. … If you’re not the guy to hit the great shot or hole the great putt, it’s over. That’s the nature of sudden death.”
Rose also finished in second place at the Masters in 2015 and 2017. He is one of nine golfers to finish as the runner-up at least three times in Masters history.
The former world No. 1 trailed McIlroy by seven strokes after the first two rounds of this year’s Masters, before gaining four strokes back in the third round on Saturday, April 11. That still left Rose three strokes behind the leader heading into Sunday.

Rose birdied five of his first nine holes on Sunday, which put him in the solo lead heading into the back nine, but consecutive bogeys on holes 11 and 12 set him back behind McIlroy on the leaderboard.
In early 2026, Rose broke the record for lowest score at the Farmers Insurance Open and became the first golfer to lead the tournament from start to finish since 1959.
Before the Masters, Rose said he was “feeling good about things” coming off that tournament.
“I feel like when I have found my game, I’ve played very well,” Rose said before the Masters began. “Farmers is a good example of that and more evidence that I’m still able to find my best, which is great to know.”
