0:33Now PlayingJustin Rose has become the first English golfer to win the US Open in 43 years.
After tapping the ball into the final hole of the tournament, the 32-year-old raised his fingers to the sky in recognition of his father Ken, who died from leukaemia in 2002 and had a huge influence on his career.
"What a day, I don't know what to say, I'm thrilled," Rose said, following the four-day tournament at Merion Golf Club in Pennsylvania.
"It wasn't lost on me that today is Father's Day. I think a lot of us came from great men and we have the responsibility to them to show them what great men can be.
"For it all to work out for me on such an emotional day, I couldn't help but look up to the heavens and think my old dad Ken had something to do with it."
