Willett continues OWGR rebound following BMW PGA win

Danny Willett's roller-coaster ride through the Official World Golf Rankings remained on an upswing following his win Sunday at the BMW PGA Championship.

Willett reached as high as No. 9 in the world in the wake of his win at the 2016 Masters, but last year the Englishman fell as far as No. 462 as he battled issues with both injury and form. Once again stamping his name among the best in the world following a three-shot win at the European Tour's flagship event, Willett jumped 27 spots to No. 31 in the latest world rankings, marking his highest position since June 2017.
