McIlroy Wins Deutsche Bank Classic While Reed Maintains FedEx Cup Lead

Rory McIlroy moved up two spots to No. 3 in the OWGR after erasing a six-shot deficit at the Deutsche Bank Championship. This marks his highest ranking since he dropped to fourth following a missed cut at the U.S. Open. Meanwhile Jordan Spieth slipped to #4 OWGR.  This week's BMW Championship marks his first start while ranked outside the OWGR top 3 since the 2015 Masters, which he won. England's Casey let a three-shot lead slip away Monday at TPC Boston, however his runner-up finish was still enough to move him up eight spots to No. 22, equaling his best ranking since January 2012. PGA champion Jimmy Walker climbed four spots to No. 15 after his third-place result in Boston, tying his best position since last August. OWGR aside, America's Patrick Reed still maintains the #1 position in the race for the FedEx Cup with just two tournaments on the 2015-2016 docket.. Two questions remain: Who will finish this season as the OWGR #1 ranked player - Jason Day or a tbd? And second, who will win the FedEx Cup? Share your picks with the Pro Golf Tour.
