9. Stewart Cink
World rank: 13
Wins: 4

Cink may have played the most consistent golf of any American player this year, but he has no wins to show for it. He has picked up a little distance to go with his solid long-putting stroke. He wasn't able to close the deal at the Honda Classic or the Verizon Heritage, but he has won in the past. His game seems suited to a U.S. Open — he three-putted to miss out on a playoff at Southern Hills in 2001 with Retief Goosen and Mark Brooks.
