Scottie Scheffler of the United States maintains his position at the top of the World Golf Rankings, strengthened by his victory at The Players Championship this weekend.
Following their tie for second place at The Players Championship, Wyndham Clark has improved for the second week in a row, moving up one place from fifth to fourth, as has fellow American Xander Schauffele, who moves into the now vacant fifth position. Max Homa, however, has suffered a setback, dropping two places to tenth. Patrick Cantlay and Brian Harman are seventh and eighth respectively in the World Golf Ranking.
In the top three of the World Golf Ranking, Spain’s Jon Rahm remains in third place, Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy is unchanged in second, while Scheffler remains at the top, consolidating his status as the figurehead of the game. Scheffler’s consistent high-level performances have solidified his place as the golfer to beat in the world of golf.
In fourth to tenth place, Norway’s Viktor Hovland has dropped from fourth to sixth. On the other hand, Ludvig Aberg of Sweden has moved up from tenth to ninth place.
The remaining top ten includes a mix of golfers who either held their ground or changed positions, underscoring the ongoing competitiveness at the highest echelons of the sport. Whether climbing or descending, each player’s position in the World Golf Ranking is a snapshot of their current form and the outcomes from their recent tournament performances.
