Beloved by many of his peers, Stewart Cink continues to be a factor in some of golf’s biggest tournaments despite being in the back end of his career.
The 2009 British Open champion has had quite the career over the past quarter-century. With 15 worldwide wins since turning pro in 1995, the former Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket has earned more than $43 million on the PGA Tour since gaining membership in 1997.
Cink has always had a knack for golf’s biggest stages, tallying top-3 finishes in all four majors with his lone major victory coming against Tom Watson at Turnberry.
Now a member of the PGA Tour Champions, Cink has already made an impact, finishing third at the Senior PGA Championship. The event was his first as a member of the PGA Tour Champions, turning 50 the week before.
With plenty of high level golf left in him, Cink looks to continue to contend at majors, showing that age is just a number.
