Winner Villegas now No 12 in World Rankings

Colombian Camilo Villegas moved up nine places to World Number 12 following his victory in the Honda Classic, where seven European Tour Members finished in the top ten.
Villegas finished on 13 under par 267 to win by five from Anthony Kim of America, with England’s Justin Rose claiming third, ahead of compatriot Paul Casey and Fiji’s Vijay Singh. All the top five players hold European Tour Membership.
Casey remains sixth in the World Ranking after his joint fourth finish and the only change in the top ten was Henrik Stenson moving up a spot to tenth. Geoff Ogilvy also edged up a place to 11th, ahead of Villegas, while Padraig Harrington dropped three places to 13th. Anthony Kim advanced to 26th, a climb of four places, the same move as Vijay Singh.
Among those competing in the Maybank Malaysian Open, Thongchai Jaidee moved up two places after finishing joint seventh, and Søren Hansen climbed five places to 45th, after finishing joint third. Teenager Noh-Seung-yul from Korea gained 136 places with his victory at Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club, moving up to 130th in the Official World Golf Ranking.
