Tranlate this title Jon Rahm’s rise slows down in the ranking in spanish

The absence of a PGA Tour LIV tournament this weekend has slightly slowed Jon Rahm’s climb in the world golf rankings as the first major of the season, the Masters, approaches, scheduled to begin on April 9th ​​in Augusta.

The player from Barrika has dropped one position and is now 29th on a list that, for another week, continues to be led by American Scottie Scheffler, ahead of Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy. The only change in the top 10 is the rise of fellow American Chris Gotterup to ninth place, displacing his compatriot Russell Henley.

American Gary Woodland, winner this Sunday at the Houston Open, climbs from 139th to 51st; Akshay Bhatia returns to the top twenty, overtaking Harris English and Norway’s Viktor Hovland.

David Puig, who missed the cut at the DP World Tour’s India tournament, drops four places to 79th, while Ángel Ayora falls two to 108th, and Eugenio López Chacarra, runner-up at Gurugram after nearly defending his 2015 title, improves from 149th to 123rd.

The Rules of Golf are a set of standards and procedures by which the sport of golf should be played. They are jointly written and administered by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, the governing body of golf worldwide, except in the United States and Mexico, which are governed by the United States Golf Association. An expert committee composed of members of the R&A and the USGA oversees and refines the rules every four years. The latest revision took effect on January 1, 2016. Amendments to the Rules of Golf are generally divided into two main categories: those that improve understanding and those that reduce penalties in certain cases to ensure balance. The rulebook, entitled «Rules of Golf,» is published regularly and also includes rules governing amateur status. In Italy, the Italian Golf Federation is responsible for overseeing competitions by enforcing the rules issued by the R&A, ensuring that these rules are observed by clubs, associations, and their members, and managing the resulting sporting justice, protecting their interests abroad.
