Coming from the DYMND Arrival for visual/ILS backup to [Runway] 28L. ATC cleared traffic onto 28L for departure. We were around 800 feet on the approach as they began their takeoff roll. Separation looked tight and we mentioned the possible go around. As they rotated and began their climb; we incurred wake turbulence which pushed our limits on a stable approach and would have led to a landing outside of the touchdown zone; a go around was commenced. Returned and landed uneventfully on 28L.
B767 Captain reported executing a go-around from short final at SFO when a departing aircraft's jet blast destabilized their aircraft.
