SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — The day after the Phoenix Suns pulled off a blockbuster trade for Kevin Durant, Stewart Cink played to the crowd at the 2023 WM Phoenix Open.
Cink, who went to Georgia Tech and lives in Atlanta, managed to get his hands on a No. 35 Suns jersey with DURANT across the back and wore it while playing the 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale. He parred the hole.
Cink isn’t the first to don a jersey on the famous par-3 hole. Max Homa and Tony Finau both wore a Kobe Bryant jersey in 2020. Homa wore the No. 24 version, while Finau had the No. 8.
Jon Rahm and Billy Mayfair, both Arizona State grads, wore the No. 42 ASU jersey of Pat Tillman.
