Stewart Cink presents Top 10 List on Late Show with David Letterman

Posted By Staff On July 29, 2009 @ 12:01 am In Sports, Sports News | No Comments

During a battle with insomnia last week, I actually managed to see an entire episode of David Letterman’s late-night television show. Am I glad I did. He just so happened to have Stewart Cink, the winner of the 2009 British Open, on that particular show. He wasn’t a scheduled guest invited to sit down and participate in an interview. Instead, he was making a cameo appearance, reading the evening’s “Top Ten List.”

In case you happened to fall asleep at a normal hour and you missed it, here it is:

Top 10 Surprising Facts About Stewart Cink

(from the Late Show with David Letterman, July 21, 2009)

10. I forgot my clubs, so I had to putt with my shoe.

9. Instead of “fore,” I often yell, “Hit the deck, losers.”

8. I can fit seven golf balls in my mouth.

7. Most people think I sell plumbing supplies.

6. I called Tiger Woods last night. I laughed, and I hung up.

5. This morning I drove from JFK to midtown in a golf cart.

4. I once got my tongue caught in a ball washer.

3. My street name is: 50-Cink.

2. I’ve already spent my winnings on gum.

1. Even I was rooting for Tom Watson.

My two personal favorites are No. 6 and No. 7. It’s nice to see a professional athlete who doesn’t take himself too seriously and exhibits a good sense of humor. Kudos to Stewart Cink, and I can only hope the next time I’m awake past 11 p.m. on a “school night,” Letterman decides to have another sports figure on his show. I’ll be watching.
