Justin Rose, Russell Henley big moves in Official World Golf Ranking

The Official World Golf Ranking has been updated for the week of April 14, 2026, with Scottie Scheffler, who was second at the Masters by a single shot, remains in the No. 1 spot. Rory McIlroy is still No. 2 and is now a little more than six points back.

The big movers this week are Justin Rose, who jumped five spots to No. 4, and Russell Henley, up six spots to No. 6. Meanwhile J.J. Spaun slid back five spots to No. 10.

The OWGR system is calculated by awarding points from eligible tours and events to participating players over a rolling two-year period. Players are ranked weekly based on the amount of points they earn divided by the number of events they played in to reach an average total. Points hold their full value for a 13-week period and are then reduced in equal decrements. The current ranking for the Top 50 golfers in the world appear below.
