Dustin Johnson drops out of OWGR top 5 for first time since 2016

For the first time in four years, Dustin Johnson is outside the top 5 in the Official World Golf Ranking.

Johnson posted a T-17 finish at last week's RBC Heritage following four straight rounds of 68 or better. But that result combined with Webb Simpson's one-shot victory still dropped Johnson down a spot to No. 6 in the latest rankings, with Simpson jumping from ninth to fifth.

Johnson has been ranked No. 1 in the world for 91 weeks, most recently in April 2019. This marks the first time that he has been outside the top 5 in the world since his victory at the 2016 U.
