Cink’s 64 good for 1st-round Charles Schwab lead

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Stewart Cink, aided by a hole-in-one on the par-3 16th, shot a 6-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Charles Schwab Cup Championship.

Cink used a 7-iron on the 184-yard 16th and saw the ball bounce once before disappearing into the cup for his first career ace on the PGA Tour Champions.

“There is some good karma out there; the hole-in-one definitely came at a good time,” said Cink, who had seven birdies and a lone bogey on the TPC Scottsdale Champions Course. “I probably needed that one.”

Cink is a two-time winner this season and has four top-10 finishes in seven starts since turning 50 on May 21 and becoming eligible for the PGA Tour Champions.

‘Just terrible’: Padraig Harrington blasts proposed PGA Tour changes

Three-time major champion Pádraig Harrington has criticized proposed changes to the PGA Tour, calling them “just terrible” and “not well thought out.” The proposed changes include a mandatory cut after 36 holes for all events, a reduced number of players in the field, and a new points system that would determine who qualifies for the FedEx Cup playoffs. Harrington believes that these changes would be detrimental to the game of golf and would unfairly penalize players who are not performing well early in the tournament. He also expressed concern that the changes would make it more difficult for young and up-and-coming players to break into the tour.

This lifelong goal is why Rory McIlroy keeps grinding on the DP World Tour

Rory McIlroy has revealed that his lifelong goal of winning the Race to Dubai is what keeps him grinding on the DP World Tour.

The former world No. 1 has been in excellent form this season, winning three times and finishing in the top five in all but two of his 11 starts on the DP World Tour.

“It’s been a goal of mine for a long time to win the Race to Dubai,” McIlroy said. “I’ve come close a few times, but I’ve never quite been able to get over the line.

“But I’m determined to keep trying. I know it’s going to be tough, but I believe I have the game to do it.”

McIlroy currently leads the Race to Dubai standings by more than 1,000 points, and he will be the heavy favorite to win the title if he can maintain his current form.
