Professional Recap

Stewart Cink dominated Harbour Town Golf Links on the way to winning his third RBC Heritage title. The 47-year-old got off to a hot start with consecutive rounds of 8-under-par 63 to head into the weekend at 16-under-par 126. Cink put it on cruise control from there, posting rounds of 2-under-par 69 and 1-under-par 70 to close out the tournament at 19-under-par 265 for the wire-to-wire four-shot victory. With the win, Cink joins fellow AJGA alumnus Bryson DeChambeau as the only PGA TOUR players to have multiple victories this season. In addition, Cink broke into the top-50 of the Official World Golf Ranking for the first time since January 2011. Cink competed in eight AJGA tournaments as a junior and now hosts his own tournament as a professional. This year's Stewart Cink Championship by Transamerica will take place in June at Vestavia Country Club.

AJGA alumna Yuka Saso made the most of her sponsor's exemption at the LPGA LOTTE Championship. The 2020 grad made her presence known when she set the LOTTE Championship's 36-hole scoring record at 16-under-par 128. She cooled off from there, but still held her own with rounds of 1-under-par 71 and 2-under-par 70 to finish the tournament T6 at 19-under-par 269. Saso had a great junior golf career, winning the 2018 Thunderbird International Junior and the 2019 Girls Junior PGA Championship. She was also named a 2019 First Team Rolex Junior All-American.
