Go Mickleson!

Why is Tiger woods still number one in the world rankings when he hasn't done anything recently? Is this ranking pulled from a hat?

BO's are fun to watch cuz those courses are so unique compared to ours over here.

IIRC Tiger's lead in the rankings is very small; he could have lost the lead altogether at last Months USOpen if Els had won. but the rankings take a sample set that goes back many many months (maybe 2 years?), so he he's had a huge lead, that's been recently whittled away.
