Stewart Cink to Transition to PGA Tour Champions

Stewart Cink, the 51-year-old PGA Tour veteran with eight career wins, has announced his decision to transition to the PGA Tour Champions circuit in 2025. After struggling with performance and finishing 173rd in the FedEx Cup standings in 2024, Cink discussed the move with his wife, Lisa, who fully supported his decision. Cink expressed that while he enjoys competition, the overall experience on the PGA Tour has become less fun due to the age gap and the rigorous demands of the tour. He noted that after playing in 11 Champions events in 2024, where he secured one victory and nine top-10 finishes, he felt ready for this new chapter. Cink aims to leverage his experience and success on the Champions Tour, targeting senior majors and the Charles Schwab Cup. His commitment marks the end of an era in a career that began in 1997 and has spanned nearly four decades.
