Ram 'Maintains World No.1 Ranking'... 'Thanks to Kitayama's Victory'
Rams and Scheffler, McIlroy 1st to 3rd... Kim Juhyung 17th
Jon Rahm (Spain) maintained his world No. 1 ranking.
Rahm scored 9.50 points in the weekly Official World Golf Ranking released on the afternoon of the 6th (Korean time), holding onto the No. 1 spot as he did last week. Despite finishing tied for 39th at the Arnold Palmer Invitational (total prize money $20 million) held at Bay Hill Club & Lodge (par 72, 7,466 yards) in Orlando, Florida, USA, Rahm retained his top position as Scottie Scheffler (USA) and Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland) failed to win.
