Narrative:
At 200 ft on short final we encountered turbulence which rolled the aircraft 35 degrees to the right. The first officer was flying and applied opposite control and the aircraft recovered. I decided to go-around in the interest of safety as we were no longer lined up and were now slightly high. This took place on runway 28R and a 767 had just landed before us on runway 28L. The wind was 220/20g26 and I believe we encountered some wake turbulence from that 767. We came around and landed uneventfully on runway 28L.
