Sun's rotation is differential, Rotation period is, nearly, 31 days near the Poles, and 25 days near the equator.

Explanation:

Rotation is induced, for conservation of angular momentum. There is

moss movement that causes convection currents, due to decreasing

temperature gradients, from core to surface that is unlike Earth's

land-water surface,

All these matter for the Sun's differential rotation,

The rotation period is nearly 31 days near Poles, and 25 days near

the equator.
