Luke Donald took third place in Canada and moved up two places to No. 7, dropping Rory McIlroy and Paul Casey down one spot apiece.

Ian Poulter rounded out the top 10 again and was trailed by U.S. Open winner Graeme McDowell, Martin Kaymer, Anthony Kim, Robert Allenby, British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen and Retief Goosen, who also held onto their positions from last week.

Edoardo Molinari used another good finish on the European Tour to move up six places to 17th. Justin Rose remained 18th, Padraig Harrington dropped two places to 19th and Zach Johnson rounded out the top 20 again. Sean O'Hair was knocked out of the top 20, dipping two spots to 21st.
