VIRGINIA WATER, England, May 19 (UPI) -- AT&T Classic winner Ryuji Imada of Japan moved up 20 spots to No. 49 in the official World Golf Ranking Monday.
Imada's playoff victory over Kenny Perry in the tournament at Duluth, Ga., was his first on the PGA Tour.
Englishman Richard Finch, winner of the weekend Irish Open, jumped 84 places to No. 134 on the world list.
