Rory McIlroy and Luke Donald dominate the Ryder Cup Points List
Rory McIlroy and Luke Donald are currently holding the top two positions in the European Tour Ryder Cup World Points List.
McIlroy, the 23-year-old Northern Irish professional is dominating both the European Points List and World Points List.
In the current season, he has played on both the PGA Tour and European Tour. He started the season in Abu Dhabi in the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
He displayed an amazing performance in the Middle East and bagged a runner-up position.
The young prodigy then moved to Dubai and played another appealing tournament of the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. He impressed all the spectators there by recording the 5th position on the leaderboard.
After two European Tour events, he took a gap and practised in the mean time. After a few days, he joined the field of the World Golf Championships - Accenture Match Play Championship and finished on the 2nd position.
In the month of March, he played the first PGA Tour event of The Honda Classic and won the title successfully. He scored a 12-under 268 there and became the world number one golfer.
He also amazed all his fans for making the World Golf Championships - Cadillac Championship competitive. He finished the mega event on the third position and maintained his commanding position.
After recording many top finishes and for earning handsome amounts, he reached the top of the Ryder Cup European Team's selection list.
On the other hand, the 34-year-old Luke Donald is on the second position of the World Points List. However, he holds the 21st position in the European Points List.
He has only played one event at the European Tour so far and it is also the reason for the 21st position. He recorded the 48th position on the leaderboard at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship in January.
He then moved to the PGA Tour and won the title of the Transitions Championship. Donald also recorded the 3rd position on the leaderboard at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and 6th at THE PLAYERS Championship.
For top finishes on the PGA Tour, the Englishman is holding the second position in the World Points List. Both McIlroy and Donald are likely to make it to the Ryder Cup with ease.
