Inside the remarkable rise of Seamus Power as he breaks world top 50

Seamus Power Masters

The remarkable rise of Seamus Power shows no sign of stopping as he moved into the top 50 in golf’s world rankings for the first time in his career.

The Waterford man reached that milestone with a share of third place at the Sony Open in Hawaii as Masters Champion Hideki Matsuyama came from five back to edge Russell Henley in a playoff in a thrilling Sunday showdown.

Power now has two months to consolidate his place in the top-50 and book his ticket to
Augusta National in April while he is also eyeing up a spot at the season-ending Tour Championship at East Lake after jumping to 14th in the FedEx Cup standings.
