Quotable:
“In almost any other circumstance Cink would have been a fan favorite on a Sunday at a major. He has experienced heartbreak before, frequently appeared on lists of best players to never win a major and has fast become a fan favorite thanks to the 500,000+ followers he has on Twitter. People root for Stewart Cink because, by all accounts, Stewart Cink is a guy worth rooting for.
Had he been playing against anyone other than Tom Watson today in the four-hole playoff at the British Open, Cink could have had a Rocco Mediate-like moment. He could have earned legions of new fans while winning the title that validated his career.
Instead, he became the anti-Rocco. He was a guy everyone was surprised to find they were rooting so hard against.” – Chris Chase
