Seamus Power has risen 15 places to 110th in the world while Shane Lowry is up three places to a career-high 12th in the rankings. The moves come after they both tied for eighth at the Valspar Championship over the weekend. It was Power's first top 10 finish since last August while it was Lowry's third of the year. 

Power shot up the leaderboard after carding a five-under 66 on Sunday, finishing the tournament on six-under, five shots behind winner Viktor Hovland.
