When Stewart Cink thinks back to when things started to click for him on the PGA Tour Champions circuit, he thinks back to Michigan. It was August 2024, and he was playing the Ally Challenge in Grand Blanc for the first time since turning 50. It was his first time playing Warwick Hills Golf & Country Club since the old Buick Open days.
Cink decided before the 2024 Ally that he was going to make the PGA Tour Champions tour his full-time tour.
He went out that week and won his first Champions tournament. He's won seven Champions tournaments since, including the Ally Challenge again last year. Next month, Cink will go for the three-peat.
"The golf course is fun to play. You know what you're going to get every year," Cink said Tuesday during Ally media day, speaking to Michigan reporters virtually while preparing to play this week's British Open at Royal Birkdale in England. "We know how to play it. It's just a question about how you execute.
"And I think that's one of the reasons players love playing at Warwick Hills. There's no tricks.
