Stewart Cink Wins His First Major in Turnberry

Stewart Cink denies Tom Watson his 6th British Open win today in Turnberry as he becomes the 2009 Open Champion. Fatigue may have been the reason why Tom Watson played so bad during the 4-hole playoff as he miss fairway after fairway. Tom Watson may have lost the Open Championship this year but he surely won so many hearts of spectators all over the world. As mentioned in my pervious post, no one would've guessed that he will be playing as well as he did the past 4 days. Even with him losing the playoff, I think that people will be talking about his 2nd place finish longer than Stewart Cink' win.

Stewart Cink played like a true champion during the playoff. It was a very emotional finish as he gave his wife and two boys a hug after the birdie at the last hole. Congratulations Mr. Cink!
