Here we take a look at what clubs 2009 Open Champion Stewart Cink puts into the bag.
Stewart Cink What’s In The Bag?
Stewart Cink’s last win may have been at the 2009 Open Championship but he can clearly still play.
What clubs does the American put in his bag each week? Let’s take a look.
Previously a Nike staff player, Cink became an equipment free agent after the brand stopped making clubs in 2016. Over the next couple of years he would continue to play without an equipment contract but that changed at the beginning of 2019 as he signed a multi-year contract with Ping. He had been playing their clubs for a while but in January it became an official relationship.
We are excited to announce that @StewartCink, a major champion and five-time winner on the @PGATour is making his debut as a PING Pro this week at the @SonyOpenHawaii. Welcome to #TeamPING! #PlayYourBest pic.twitter.com/n9aiJnoSX3

The deal sees Cink play at least 11 Ping clubs but right now it appears, excluding his wedges, all of his clubs are made by the brand.
He starts out with the G425 LST driver and then a couple of G410 fairway woods. One of them acts as his three-wood and the other is more like a seven-wood. Fairly recently he was carrying a TaylorMade SIM fairway wood but this looks to have come out of his setup.
He uses Ping i210 irons which go from four-iron down to the U-wedge – otherwise known as the gap wedge.
His wedges are Titleist Vokey SM8‘s and they have lofts of 56 and 60 degrees.
Finally he has a Ping Vault 2.0 Ketsch putter and a Titleist Pro V1x ball.
