Paul Lawrie and Kyle Stanley, Sunday's big winners in men's Titleist 712 AP2 Irons, have each taken significant steps on the World Rankings list.
Scottish 40-something veteran Lawrie, who won the wind-shortened Commercialbank Qatar Masters for the second time in 13 years at the Doha GC, jumped 31 places into that all important Top-50 bubble in 47th place.
And a little later in the day, Kyle Stanley was to shrug away his Titleist 712 AP2 Irons in last week's final round of the Farmer's Insurance Open at Torrey Pines and come hammering back from eight strokes back to win a Waste Management Phoenix Open in Arizona that would hoist him from 87th to 52nd place and put him just a whisker away from a Top 50 slot.
There was little movement at the very top of the World Rankings list with Luke Donald, Rory McIlroy, Lee Westwood, Martin Kaymer and Steve Stricker all respectively holding their top six positions, but behind them Jason Day's top five finish in Qatar helped him edge ahead of fellow Australian Adam Scott into 7th place behind Webb Simpson.( Titleist 712 AP2 Irons)
Tiger Woods, the long time World No 1 before his fall from grace two years ago, took time off last week to ready himself for Pebble Beach this week, and slipped a notch from 17th to 18th.
So too did old rival Phil Mickelson.
Despite his Top 25 finish at TPC Scottsdale on Sunday, Mickelson dropped back a notch to 17th, one ahead of Woods and one behind strong Qatar finisher Sergio Garcia.
