Jason Day Running Away with BMW Lead
This is sort of getting ridiculous.

Spieth Regains No. 1 Spot for 1 Week
Just when you thought golf's ranking system couldn't get any weirder, Jordan Spieth is back to being No. 1 in the world, despite missing a seconds straight cut. Even weirder, he'll lose the ranking again next week, because Rory McIlroy finished tied for 29th at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Spieth is now tied with Bernard … Continue reading Spieth Regains No. 1 Spot for 1 Week

Although he trails leader Charley Hoffmann by six strokes after two rounds of the Deutsche Bank Championship, Australia's Jason Day still has an excellent chance to become No. 1 at some point over the rest of the season, particularly with the fade of No. 2 Jordan Spieth and the so-so play of No. 1 Rory … Continue reading Three No. 1s in One Year?

Deutsche Bank Championship Preview
Ninety-nine of the top 100 players in the most recent FedEx Cup standings converge on TPC Boston starting Thursday for the second leg of the lucrative post-season tournament.

McIlroy Retakes No. 1 Spot
Rory McIlroy is back to being ranked No. 1 in the world thanks to Jordan Spieth missing the cut at last week's The Barclays. Just 0.1360 average points separates the two men, which means how they fare in the weeks ahead of the FedEx Cup, and McIlroy in the Race to Dubai, could conceivably see … Continue reading McIlroy Retakes No. 1 Spot
