Cink completes record comeback

Stewart Cink recorded the greatest final-round PGA Tour comeback on American soil when erasing a nine-stroke deficit before breaking Ted Purdy’s heart in a five-hole play-off at the Heritage.

Playing an hour-and-threequarters ahead of the final pairing of Purdy and Heath Slocum, Cink carded a seven-under-par 64 to post a clubhouse total of 10 under par on 274 – two strokes behind Purdy at the time.
