GRAEME McDowell is up to seventh in the world rankings after his victory in the World Match Play Championship in Bulgaria on Sunday. The Northern Irishman defeated Thailand's Thongchai Jaidee in the final of the European Tour event for what was his second title win in his last three events.
There was no change among the top six in the rankings, with Tiger Woods continuing to lead the way ahead of McDowell's compatriot Rory McIlroy.
McDowell topped Thongchai 2 and 1. The 2010 US Open champion fought back from 2 down after four holes and only edged in front of his Thai opponent on the 14th hole before securing victory at the 17th.
In Irving, Texas, South Korea's Bae Sang-moon won his first US PGA title on Sunday, firing a one-under par 69 to win the US$6.7 million Byron Nelson Championship by two strokes over American Keegan Bradley. The 26-year-old South Korean finished on 13-under 267 to hold off 2011 PGA Championship winner Bradley, who shot 72.
