Padraig Harrington’s poor run of form has seen him slip to 10th in the latest world rankings. Third last August following back-to-back major victories, the Dubliner has steadily fallen down the list with a string of disappointing results.
Steve Stricker has jumped from 13th to eighth in the world with his play-off victory at the Colonial tournament in Texas, while surprise European Open champion Christian Cevaer moves up from 449th to 129th.
