CINK, TRINGALE REP JACKETS AT CJ CUP IN LAS VEGAS

Only Stewart Cink and Cameron Tringale were in the limited, 78-man field last weekend at the CJ Cup at Summit, a no-cut event at The Summit in Las Vegas. Cink tied for 49th place with a 13-under-par 275 total in his first action of the 2021-22 season, while Tringale tied for 59th at 10-under-par 278.

Rory McIlroy won the event at 25-under-par.

The PGA Tour has an event this weekend in Chiba, Japan, the ZOZO Championship, and Chesson Hadley joins Tringale in the limited field. Richy Werenski, who is not in the field, holds the tournament single-round record with a 61 last fall when the event was held at Sherwood Country Club in California.

WHO’S MOST LIKELY TO GET FIRST PGA TOUR WIN THIS SEASON?

There are a number of very good players still looking for their first win on the PGA Tour. In our current series, we are taking a look at the players who might be next to get that first win. Today’s subject is Cameron Tringale.

This one is tough because it seems that Tringale can get himself into contention but can never close the deal. The numbers simply don’t lie.

Amazingly, Tringale has made 311 starts on the PGA Tour without a win. He has finished second on three occasions in his career. He was T2 at the Barclays in 2014, finished second to Justin Rose at the 2015 Zurich Classic and was T2 at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open in 2016.

Last season, Tringale made 27 starts on tour and was able to make the cut 20 times. He had 11 Top 25 showings and four Top 10s. Including in those were two third-place finishes. He was T3 at the Valspar Championship, then finished one shot out of a playoff, in third, at the RSM Classic.
