View original image[Asia Economy Kim Hyun-jun, Golf Specialist Reporter] ○…‘Memorial Tournament Champ’ Patrick Cantlay has entered the world ranking ‘Top 10’.
On the 8th (Korean time), in the officially announced weekly golf world ranking, he received 6.44 points and soared from 15th place last week to 7th place. He accumulated points by winning the final day of the PGA Tour Memorial Tournament (total prize money $9.3 million) held the day before at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio (par 72, 7,456 yards) after an extended playoff against Collin Morikawa (both from the United States). This is already his second win of the season following the Zozo Championship in October last year, which was included in the 2021 season. He rose to 1st place in the FedEx Cup points ranking (PO) with 1,902 points.

Xander Schauffele (United States) is 6th, and it is interesting that despite three 2nd place finishes and one 3rd place finish, he still has no wins.
