Leonard jumps to World Number 25, a rise of 13 places while Allenby jumps 10 to 30th and Immelman consolodates 16th place in the World.

India's Jeev Milkha Singh had a final round of 18 straight pars to win the Bank Austria Golf Open presented by Telekom Austria. Singh's final round 71 for a three round winning total of 15 under par at the weather affected event was enough to win by a stroke from England's Simon Wakefield. Singh climbs 19 places to World Number 71.

Since its launch in 1997, Golf International has forged a reputation as the standout quality title in golf publishing. The caliber of columnists, writers, players and coaches is unrivalled, while the design and layout of the magazine separates it still further from the competition. In a congested market wrought with mediocrity, Golf International appeals to committed golfers who are as serious about their game as we are about ours.

The ethos behind Golf International is simple: our aim is to entertain, inform and educate our readers with a wide range of fresh and original editorial. Peter Alliss, Ian Wooldridge, Colin Callander, Tom Cox, Paul Mahoney, Clive Agran and John Huggan are listed among our regular columnists. Other notable contributors include Paul Trow and David Davies. We are particularly proud of our association with the teaching staff of the DLGA, who, under the guidance of the world’s No.1 coach – David Leadbetter – provide some of the finest instruction you will find anywhere. Monty’s coach, Denis Pugh, is another regular contributor, as is leading European Tour coach, Peter Cowen, and one of the world’s most innovative instructors, Robert Baker. The popular Senior Tour player, Tony Johnstone, has also made Golf International his literary home.

With the generous and on-going support of Volvo Car UK, we are committed to developing our Amateur pages, featuring regular profiles, interviews and tournament news from both the men’s and women’s amateur game. Another innovation has been our Business pages, which provide the magazine with a unique angle on business-related stories, along with regular features from our resident experts on golfing memorabilia (Kevin McGimpsey), betting (Jeremy Chapman) and motoring (Anthony ffrench-Constant). We hope you enjoy the magazine and invite you to be a part of our continued success.

With a new distribution partner – Comag – in place from the August ’06 issue (and already delivering a significant increase in newsstand sales), we will be raising our game in the retail sector while at the same time consolidating our position as the premium title in the air and selected-sponsorship sectors.
