In a thrilling conclusion to the PGA TOUR Champions season, Stewart Cink emerged victorious at the Charles Schwab Cup Championship, securing not just the tournament win but also the prestigious Charles Schwab Cup season points title. But here's where it gets even more impressive: Cink's final-round 4-under 67 brought him to a staggering 20-under 264, edging out third-round leader Steven Alker by two strokes. Alker, who finished second in both the tournament and the season standings, stumbled with a bogey on the par-5 18th, carding a 70. This win marks Cink's third victory this season and his fourth in just 36 starts on the 50-and-older tour, solidifying his dominance in this chapter of his career. At 52, Cink continues to build on his legacy, which already includes eight PGA TOUR wins, most notably his 2009 Open Championship playoff triumph over the legendary Tom Watson.

Freddie Jacobson (66), Jerry Kelly (67), and Tommy Gainey (68) rounded out the top finishers, tying for third at 15 under, showcasing the depth of talent in this elite field.
