YORK’S Simon Dyson has slipped to number 43 in the latest World Golf Rankings.

The 34-year-old Malton & Norton Golf Club star who was at number 40, is due to resume his European Tour campaign in this week’s BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth.

The 4.5 million euro tournament gets under way on Thursday.

Dyson will be joined in the field by Belgian Nicolas Colsaerts, who climbed from 51st to 32nd in the world after his victory over Graeme McDowell in the final of the Volvo World Match Play Championship in Spain.
