Woods up to second in world rankings

Tiger Woods has moved up two places to second in the latest world golf rankings after finishing joint-third at the Open.

The 14-time major champion leapfrogs Rory McIlroy and Lee Westwood and now only Luke Donald, who finished tied-fifth at Royal Lytham & St Annes, lies ahead of Woods.

The victor, Ernie Els, has moved up 25 places to 15th, while Adam Scott, who bogeyed the last four holes to throw away the chance of a first Major, rises from 13th to sixth.
