OWGR: Fitzpatrick rises; Scott outside top 20

Matthew Fitzpatrick’s fourth career European Tour title allowed for a solid boost to his world ranking.

Fitzpatrick won the Omega European Masters in a playoff over Scott Hend. As a result, the 23-year-old Englishman moved up 15 spots in the Official World Golf Ranking, to 33^rd.

Hend jumped 20 spots, to 78^th.

There was no PGA Tour event this past week as the FedExCup Playoffs went on hiatus before the final two-event push to the finish line.

The only movement inside the top 20 was Adam Scott dropping to 21^st and being replaced at No. 20 by Louis Oosthuizen. Scott has been a fixture inside the top 20 since the 2011 season.

The top 10 goes like this: Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth, Hideki Matsuyama, Justin Thomas, Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy, Henrik Stenson, Sergio Garcia, Jason Day and Rickie Fowler.
