World Rankings:American Kenny Perry has moved up to a career-best fourth in the world rankings just six weeks away from his 49th birthday.
Masters runner-up Perry fired a closing 63 to win the PGA Tour’s Travelers Championship to move above Sergio Garcia, Henrik Stenson and Geoff Ogilvy.
Nick Dougherty’s victory at the BMW International Open in Munich took him from 120th to 64th, but Ernie Els is out of the top 20 for the first time since 1993 and Justin Rose’s missed cut in the States saw him drop him out of the game’s top 50.
Pádraig Harrington remains the highest ranked Irishman and is unchanged in 11th, while Rory McIlroy, who tied 15th in Germany, is 18th in the latest standings.
Graeme McDowell is the only other Irishman inside the top 50 – he is currently 44th.
