LIV Golf Star Dustin Johnson falls outside Top 150 in Official World Golf Ranking for the first time in over a decade

Dustin Johnson has slipped out of the top 150 in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) for the first time since 2008. In this week's update, he was ranked No. 152 in the OWGR, having been ranked No. 15 when he teed off in the rival league's inaugural event in London.

The former No. 1 golfer has suffered a blow to his ranking since he joined the breakaway LIV Golf circuit. The last time he ascended to World No. 1 in the rankings was in July 2021 for six days.

Johnson is just behind Tiger Woods and Greg Norman for the most weeks at the top in the OWGR. He first reached the top of the rankings on February 19, 2017, and remained there until May 12, 2018. The 64-week streak is the fifth-longest in golf history.

Since LIV Golf events are denied ranking points, the associated professionals don't have many opportunities to improve their ranking. Dustin Johnson featured in all four major championships this year, but failed to make a great impression.

The two-time major champion's best performance was the T10 finish at the US Open. He was tied for 48 at the Masters Tournament, finished T-55 at the PGA Championship, and failed to make a cut at the Open Championship this year.

Brooks Koepka and Cameron Smith are the only golfers from the Saudi Golf Circuit who are currently in the top 50 in OWGR. Koepka notably made the most of the majors this year after winning at the Oak Hill and finishing runner-up at the Augusta National.

LIV Golf has been fighting for the ranking points since the inaugural season. However, their bid was officially denied a couple of months ago, with "technical reasons" cited as being behind the decision.

Last year, Johnson was the individual champion in LIV Golf's inaugural season and his team 4Aces won the team championship. This year, he finished fifth in the season standings after claiming one win and six other top-ten finishes.

Although the 4Aces topped the season standings, they finished fourth in the Team Championship in Miami.
