Tiger Woods Pulls a Gotcha!

Banged up knee and all, Tiger still stands tall
Tiger strengthens rankings lead
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Tiger Woods was in jeopardy of losing his top spot in the world rankings last week, but a victory Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational strengthened his standing.
Woods was first, followed by Phil Mickelson, Sergio Garcia, Geoff Ogilvy and Padraig Harrington.
Vijay Singh was sixth again this week, while Robert Karlsson and Camilo Villegas switched place. Karlsson finished seventh and Villegas came in eighth. Kenny Perry moved up to ninth and Henrik Stenson slipped one to No. 10.
Steve Stricker and Paul Casey remained in 11th and 12th, respectively. Anthony Kim and Lee Westwood each rose one, but Jim Furyk dipped two down to 15th.
Ernie Els, Rory McIlroy, Stewart Cink, Mike Weir and Martin Kaymer all held pat from last week to complete the top 20.
Sean O'Hair, who finished second to Woods last week, jumped 13 places to 28th in the world, his highest career ranking.
