Scottie Scheffler finishes fourth and remains number one
Golf, ranking
Scottie Scheffler, despite finishing fourth in Texas at the WGC-Dell, remained number one in the world rankings.
Behind him now, however, is no longer Spain’s Jon Rahm, who slipped to third place, but Rory McIlroy, himself eliminated in the semifinals Sunday.
Sam Burns, the weekend’s triumphant Austin golfer, dropped from 15th to 10th after his WGC exploit.
Among the Italians, the best remains Francesco Molinari, one hundred and twenty-fifth and ready for the Valero Texas Open, a PGA Tour tournament that precedes The Masters (April 6-9).
