Justin Rose holds a commanding six-shot lead at the Farmers Insurance Open after shooting a four-under 68 on Saturday. His 21-under total puts him one stroke shy of the tournament's record score set by Tiger Woods and George Burns.

Rose's performance was marked by four birdies on the front nine, including three straight from the fifth hole. Despite three bogeys on the back nine, his consistency keeps him in prime position to claim his 13th PGA Tour title and second victory at Torrey Pines.

Joel Dahmen sits second at 15 under, followed by Ryo Hisatsune and Si Woo Kim at 13 under. Germany’s Stephan Jaeger surged into the top 10 with a blistering 65. Final round coverage begins Sunday at 3.30pm on Sky Sports Golf.

A strong finish would secure Rose a third Tour win in three years and tie the event’s scoring record. Anything less than a two-under 68 on Sunday could open the door for a chasing group still within striking distance.
