Tiger Woods has dropped another three places to 36th in the latest world rankings.
Open champion Darren Clarke, Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez and the PGA Tour's newest winner Webb Simpson have all now overtaken Woods, destined to fall further after failing to qualify for the FedEx Cup play-offs.
Simpson, who captured the Wyndham Championship in North Carolina, is up from 55th to 33rd, while England's Oliver Fisher, winner of the Czech Open, climbs from 507th to 238th.
