Monty shoots up rankings

Colin Montgomerie, 81st in the world rankings at the start of 2005, now finds himself back up to 22nd following his second place in the Open championship.

The 42-year-old Scot had made a place in the top 25 his objective by the end of the season, but now the former number two – that was almost 10 years ago - can start targeting a top-10 spot.
