Stewart Cink made a huge jump in the Official World Golf Ranking on Sunday evening after winning the RBC Heritage.
Cink, who won by four shots in a wire-to-wire victory at Harbour Town, rose 71 spots, from No. 115 to No. 44, cracking the top 50 for the first time since January 2011. He’s improved more than 100 places since missing the cut at The Players last month. He followed with finishes of T-19 at Honda, T-12 at the Masters and his triumph at the Heritage.
Sunday’s win was the eighth of Cink’s PGA Tour career and second this season for the 47-year-old Cink.
