A 44-year-old veteran and former major champion, Cink has played a full schedule this year and reaped the rewards, posting a boatload of solid finishes. The Greenbrier will serve as a new challenge for him, but if the Georgia Tech product’s seasonlong performance is any indication, he should be in for success.
With 10 top 30 finishes and just three missed cuts, Cink is having a remarkably consistent year for a player of his age. He owes that mostly to a lethal combination of ball striking and putting — he ranks 11th on the PGA TOUR in strokes gained: tee-to-green and 20th in strokes gained: putting, making him an incredibly dangerous player. True, this will be his first career appearance at the Greenbrier Classic, but it’s not like he’ll be up against a first-rate field. His talent and form should see him through to a strong finish.
At $6,900 in DraftKings, Cink is available at a ridiculously low price for a player who’s gotten on the board as many times as he has in 2017. He probably won’t win, but it wouldn’t be a shock to see him on the first couple of pages of the leaderboard.
