Spiet on a Tiger hunt

-

JORDAN Spieth finds himself below Tiger Woods in the world rankings for the first time in more than four years ahead of this week’s Mayakoba Golf Classic in Mexico.

At the end of 2017, Spieth was the reigning Open champion and ranked second in the world, while Woods had played one event in his latest comeback and was a lowly 656th.

However, despite not playing competitiv­ely since the Ryder Cup, Woods is now ranked 13th in the world — one place ahead of Spieth in 14th.
