FIVE GB&I PLAYERS IN TOP
20 OF WORLD RANKINGS

There are five British and Irish players in the top 20 of the latest world professional men's rankings. Colin Montgomerie is the only Scot.
Paul Casey, winner of the Abu Dhabi Championship on Sunday, has moved up to 13th position - his highest ever in the world rankings. Still ahead of him are Luke Donald (No 7) and Padraig Harrington (No 9).
David Howell (No 15) and Colin Montgomerie (No 18) are the only other GB&I men in the top 20.
The leading 50 the week before the Masters automatically qualify for a place in the Augusta National field. Casey missed out last year on the first major because he was 51st in the rankings.
