Rory McIlroy remains at No. 6 in the latest Official World Golf Ranking released on Monday and unaffected by his last hole win at the Emirates Australian Open in Sydney. Only 32 world-ranking points were available to the winner at Royal Sydney, so McIlroy remained more than .64 average points behind No. 5 Justin Rose.
Adam Scott moved ever closer to the world No. 1, Tiger Woods, after his blitz through the Australian triple crown.
After wins at the Australian PGA and Australian Masters, followed by a third-place finish at the World Cup and at the Australian Open, Scott is now 1.7 points behind Woods - the closest he has ever been to topping the rankings.
The only movement in the top 10 was No. 10 Jason Day, who swapped places with Jason Dufner after a T-6 finish at the Australian Open.
Charl Schwartzel jumped from No. 21 to No. 18 with his successful defense of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
Hideki Matsuyama moved from No. 25 to No. 23 after his victory at the Japan Tour’s Casio World Open.
The rest of the top 10: Woods, Scott, Henrik Stenson, Phil Mickelson, Rose, McIlroy, Matt Kuchar, Steve Stricker, Brandt Snedeker and Day.
