Rory McIlroy has lost his world No One ranking.

The Holywood superstar finished off a disappointing Memorial tournament at the Muirfield Village in Ohio with a final round of +6.

That meant outright winner Jon Rahm on - 9 took the world top spot, becoming only the second Spaniard after Seve Ballesteros to do so.

McIlroy was tied for 32nd overall while fellow countryman Graeme McDowell had already bowed out of the event having missed the cut.
