Spieth retakes second in rankings from Matsuyama

Three-time major winner Jordan Spieth regained second spot in the world golf rankings on Monday despite losing to top-ranked Dustin Johnson in a playoff at the Northern Trust Open on Sunday.

American Spieth, who won his third major title at the British Open last month, overtakes Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama. Johnson strengthened his grip on the world No. 1 ranking thanks to his first win since injuring himself falling down stairs before April’s Masters. Spanish star Jon Rahm, who only turned professional last year, continued his sensational rise by breaking into the top five for the first time after finishing tied for third with Venezuela’s Jhonattan Vegas in New York.
