There is no movement at the top in this week’s World Golf Ranking (pdf), as Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy remain first and second. Justin Rose is up to third following his victory at the U.S. Open over the weekend, while Adam Scott and Matt Kuchar round out the top five.
World Golf Rankings 2013: Tiger Woods checks in at No. 1 once again
Another week of new rankings, another week of Tiger at the top.

Rose’s move included, there was minor shuffling within the top 10. Phil Mickelson made a four-spot leap to sixth following his runner-up finish at Merion, but no one else gained or lost more than one position. Elsewhere, Jason Day and Billy Horschel made double-digit jumps after strong weekends -- Day is up 10 spots to No. 16, while Horschel is up from 50th to No. 34.
Woods and McIlroy, on the other hand, are coming off poor showings, but they had enough of a cushion to avoid losing ground in the rankings.
