That'll be the case in golf tomorrow, as Rory McIlroy moves up to third in the rankings behind Donald and Westwood.
Certainly the first time that's ever happened in golf since the days when only Britain and Ireland played the sport, and I'd think the first time in pretty much any major international sport or event (which frankly excludes darts, bowls or snooker) that I can think of. Possibly Coe, Ovett and Cram as the top 3 mile runners in the mid-80s, but even then there was Aouita, wasn't there? Did we ever have the top 3 F1 drivers at the same time? Maybe squash, haven't we been quite good at that recently?
