Stewart Cink (reigning Charles Schwab Cup winner) clinched his first major title at the 2026 Senior PGA Championship held at The Concession in Bradenton, Florida. Starting the final round tied for second, Cink surged ahead with a remarkable performance that included an eagle on the 7th hole and back-to-back birdies on the 8th and 9th. He finished the tournament at 19 under par, setting a new course record with a final round of 63. Cink's strong play allowed him to build a five-shot lead, ultimately finishing five strokes ahead of Ben Crane, who secured second place at 13 under par. This victory not only adds to Cink's accolades, bringing his total to seven senior titles, but also provides him with a lifetime exemption into the Senior PGA Championship and a spot in the upcoming 2026 PGA Championship in Newton Square, Pennsylvania. For his efforts, Cink earned $540,000 in prize money.
