Jordan Spieth will
regain No. 1...
Jordan Spieth is on top again.
And around and around we go. Jordan
Spieth lost his No. 1 ranking to Rory
McIlroy last week after missing the cut
at The Barclays. This week, after
missing the cut at the Deutsche Bank
Championship, he will regain it.
Such is life when the Official World
Golf Ranking is involved.
No matter what Spieth did, he was going
to regain his No. 1 slot as long as Rory
McIlroy didn't finish better than 10th
(he's currently 30th after four rounds)
and Jason Day didn't win (he's seven
strokes back with nine holes to go).
So Spieth is back as the top dog after,
ironically, missing two straight cuts
for the first time in his career.
There's really no use in trying to
figure out the tiny numbers that decide
such things or who's going to be No. 1
the following week. The only thing that
really matters is that any of these
three can be No. 1 in any given week
now. If none of them win the rest of
this year, that will likely continue
into the beginning of 2016.
