The 2013 US Open champion is at his highest ranking since the end of the 2015 season.

The 37-year-old took advantage of a Dustin Johnson meltdown on Sunday, although the American extended his lead as world No 1 despite blowing a six-shot lead in China.

Reigning US Open champion Brooks Koepka moved to a career-high mark of seventh after finishing tied for second with Johnson and Swede Henrik Stenson.

Four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, who has already ended his season, dropped three spots to ninth, his lowest ranking since May 2014.
