The RBC Heritage is the traditional stop on the PGA Tour the week after the Masters, and this year is no exception. After two rounds, Stewart Cink, who, at age 47, has revitalized his career with two top-ten finishes and one victory on the 2021 Tour already, has posted double 63s and has a 5-shot lead on the field heading into the third round.
In the “Horses For Courses” category, the RBC Heritage has been played with different sponsors and names since its inception in 1969, but always played at the Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina. As it turns out, Cink has won this tournament twice before, in 2000 and 2004. While Cink would likely prefer a green jacket someday, he will gladly slip on the tartan plaid jacket, in honor of Sir William Innes, who was captain of the Society of Golfers at Blackheath in Scotland in the 1790s, awarded to the RBC Heritage winner late Sunday afternoon should the occasion arise.

In that case, given his career renaissance, he
most likely will not be heard singing the following sad refrain very often this
season.
ONE STROKE OVER THE CUT
Original song: One Toke Over The Line

One Toke Over The Line Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group
One stroke over the cut sweet Jesus
One stroke over the cut
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
Awaitin' for the pilot flying home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that the pilot’s on time
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
Whoooo does golf love, I hope it's
me
I've bin a struglin', as you can plainly see
I felt the joy and I learned about the pain missing the cut did
If I should choose to make this part of my
game surely fix my head
One stroke over the cut sweet Jesus
One stroke over the cut
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
Awaitin' for the pilot flying home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that the pilot’s on time
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
I hit the ball a country mile,
But no strokes gained and I don’t smile
I played all the shots and loved
myself a few
Taken by surprise all the rough I've cut through
I ended over par and now I'm
One toke over the line sweet Jesus
One stroke over the cut sweet Jesus
One stroke over the cut
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
Awaitin' for the pilot flying home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that the pilot’s on time
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
I don’t want to be
One stroke over the cut sweet Jesus
One stroke over the cut
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
Awaitin' for the pilot flying home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that the pilot’s on time
Sittin' in my Lear on a red-hot tarmac
One stroke over the cut
