Callum climbs from 1,009th to 407th
in world rankings with second place
Even though neither of them played last week, the gap between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson at the top of the world rankings has come down to just 0.2 points - the closest it has ever been between them.
Woods plays the third event of his comeback at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Bay Hill this week. If he fails to finish in the top two Mickelson, not in action again, would then have a chance to topple him at next week's Houston Open.
Retief Goosen's victory in the Transitions Championship lifts him from 39th to 22nd, while Argentina's Estanislao Goya is up from 195th to 99th after winning the Madeira Islands Open.
There is an even bigger leap for runner-up Kincardine's Callum Macaulay, who birdied the last six holes and eight of the last nine. Last year's Scottish amateur champion, who has been a professional for only four months, improves from 1,009th to 407th.
