During the post-round interview, Langer received high praise from Stewart Cink.

"Yeah, it's so impressive," he said about Langer's game. "Probably even more so now that I've gotten to play with him in the hunt, on a Sunday, with the whole thing riding on it. He just is like a machine out there. He's very accurate. He's very well planned and thought out.

"He and Terry have a good rapport with each other. They just go about things in a very professional way. He shoots the optimal score every day. Like he just doesn't give a lot away. Yeah, he's really impressive," he added.

Following the Ascension Charity Classic, Bernhard Langer is 21st in the Charles Schwab Cup standings, while Stewart Cink is 12th. Ernie Els is currently leading the standings, followed by Stephen Ames.
