After more than 5 years dominating the world rankings, Tiger Woods has at last been toppled from the number one position by England’s Lee Westwood.  There is no question that Tiger’s ‘off course’ issues have affected his decline in form, but it was still no mean feat on Westwood’s behalf as Tiger was so far ahead in the rankings.  I personally think that Westwood’s consistency over the last couple of years, especially in the Majors, has vindicated his position at the top of the rankings and I think that it’s refreshing for the game.
