Jason Day Wins WGC Matchplay to Re-Capture the World #1 Ranking from Jordan Spieth

Jason Day won the WGC-Dell Match Play for the second time in three years with a 5 and 4 victory over Louis Oosthuizen in the final at Austin Country Club. After two wins in as many weeks, Jason Day is back to the top spot in the Official World Golf Rankings. Day beat South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen 5 and 4, in the final of the WGC-Dell Match Play to de-throne Jordan Spieth  out of the top spot for the first time since early November. While Day was assured of the No. 1 ranking by making the semifinals, his win means that he'll remain No. 1 leading into the Masters regardless of Spieth's performance this week at the Shell Houston Open. Day had previously spent a total of four weeks with the No. 1 ranking following his win at last year's BMW Championship. Here at the Pro Golf Tour our premise has been that Jason Day, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy comprise a new "top threesome" that is likely to dominate the men's game for the foreseeable future ... with any of these oustanding players holding the OWGR #1 spot at any point in time. For now all eyes are looking to The Masters. Can the struggling Jordan Spieth resusrect his game to successfully defend his 2015 victory, will Jason Day's steamroller position him to capture his 2nd major win or will Rory McIlroy rise to the occassion by displaying some of his past brilliance to claim his first Masters?
