Enjoying a surge in the twilight of his career, the 47-year-old Cink putted for birdie on all but one hole Friday on his way to a 7-under 63 that gave him a share of the early lead with Webb Simpson.
Cink already won the season-opener in the Safeway Open in September, his first victory since the 2009 British Open at Turnberry.
Simpson holed a 40-foot birdie putt on the par-3 seventh hole, hit it tight on No.
