Scottie Scheffler remains the undisputed leader of the Official World Golf Ranking, retaining his position as the world’s number one player. His consistent play over the past months has kept him ahead of the pack, with his average points ensuring a firm grip on the top spot. Meanwhile, Xander Schauffele continues to showcase his trademark steadiness, sitting comfortably at number two as he solidifies his reputation as one of the most reliable performers in the game today.

World Golf Raking: American Presence Dominates in the Top 10

The strength of American golf is particularly evident in the latest rankings, with Collin Morikawa holding onto fourth place and Wyndham Clark staying stable at sixth. Patrick Cantlay, who continues to quietly compile strong finishes week after week, is also unchanged at ninth. These players have shown a remarkable ability to maintain their form, positioning themselves as fixtures among the world’s golfing elite.

Small Movements, Big Impact in the Top 10

While the top spots have remained relatively unchanged, there has been some movement further down the rankings. England’s Tommy Fleetwood has edged up to break into the top 10, a reward for his steady play throughout the season. However, Bryson DeChambeau was pushed consequently to 11th place . Rory McIlroy holds firm in third place, continuing his impressive run, while Swedish sensation Ludvig Åberg rounds out the top five. Åberg’s rise is one of the more compelling stories in recent months, as the young talent from Sweden continues to make waves on the international stage.

Position	Player Name	Average Points	Change from Last Week
1	Scottie Scheffler	17.09	0
2	Xander Schauffele	10.85	0
4	Collin Morikawa	6.14	0
6	Wyndham Clark	5.43	0
9	Patrick Cantlay	4.46	0

Rory McIlroy continues to lead the British charge in the Official World Golf Ranking, holding steady at No. 3 this week. The Northern Irishman remains locked into his position with a solid average points score, keeping him in close contention with the world’s top two players. His consistency shows no signs of wavering as he continues his campaign through the closing stages of the season.

Meanwhile, Tommy Fleetwood has made headlines this week by breaking into the Top 10. The Englishman jumped from 11th to 10th, marking his return to the elite tier of world golf. Fleetwood’s steady performance and a string of strong finishes have solidified his upward trajectory, and his place in the Top 10 reflects his current form.

British Players Making Moves in the Rankings

Further down the rankings, Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre remains entrenched at No. 16, with no change from the previous week. MacIntyre’s consistent showing continues to keep him within reach of breaking into the higher echelons of the rankings, as he looks to close the gap on McIlroy and Fleetwood.

Tyrrell Hatton, however, is the week’s biggest mover. The Englishman soared up 18 spots from No. 38 to No. 20, an impressive leap that underscores his recent form. Hatton’s surge is one of the standout stories, as he looks poised to push even higher if his performances remain strong. On the other hand, Matt Fitzpatrick saw a slight dip, slipping one place to No. 30, but the 2022 U.S. Open champion remains well within the top tier of the rankings.

World’s Best Hold Their Ground

At the very top of the rankings, Scottie Scheffler remains the world’s No. 1, a position the American has held comfortably for much of the year. He’s followed closely by Xander Schauffele, with no changes among the top two this week. The rest of the Top 10 has remained largely static, with players like Collin Morikawa, Ludvig Aberg, Wyndham Clark, Hideki Matsuyama, Viktor Hovland, and Patrick Cantlay all maintaining their positions.

However, Bryson DeChambeau’s fall out of the Top 10 opened the door for Fleetwood’s rise, pushing him into 10th place and marking a significant shift in the rankings. With DeChambeau’s departure, the British contingent in the Top 10 grows stronger as Fleetwood reasserts himself among the world’s best.
