Rose wins Turkish Airlines Open, becomes World No 1; Sharma finishes tied 43rd

India's Shubhankar Sharma produced his best card of four-under 67 to finish tied 43rd after Justin Rose beat Li Haotong in a play-off to successfully defend a Rolex Series title at the Turkish Airlines Open.

In the process, Rose also got back his top position in the ranking charts.

Sharma was happy to take a good final round as he took off for the next event, the Nedbank Challenge in South Africa.

He said, "I think I played quite well. Can't really look at the past three days, good that finally I had a decent round. Something good to take from this week for South Africa. I saw it on TV last years, the same event. I won in South Africa, not too far away, so good memories."
"After that, I just kept hitting it pretty close, could make those putts. I felt hit some decent putts, which just broke too much or never stopped. Otherwise, it was a good round. I was happy to get that round in even if on the last day."
