Tim Clark has twice finished runner-up at the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial and is back for another crack this week.
Clark tied for second in back-to-back years in 2008 and 2009 and has six top 25s in eight starts to just one missed cut. With his course history established, the question then turns to current form. Though he missed the cut at THE PLAYERS, his T11 at the Masters at T24 at the RBC Heritage points to all systems being a go. May 22 - 9:41 PM

Tim Clark signed for a 3-under-par 34-34=68 in the third round of the RBC Heritage and enters the finale at 6-under 207.

Clark circled five birdies and squared two bogeys on his third lap around Harbour Town. The highlight of his afternoon came at the difficult par-3 14th when his tee shot came to rest 4'9" from the bottom of the cup for an eventual birdie. He will try and secure his third top 10, and first since the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship, in Sunday's final round.

Tim Clark posted a 3-under-par 32-36=68 in his opening round of the RBC Heritage, finishing three strokes adrift of the clubhouse lead.

The South African is coming off a spirited T11 at the Masters where he carded a field-low 67 in his third round. He hit 12 greens in regulation at Harbour Town today and rolle in five birdies, all from inside nine feet. Clark was the 10th on a growing list to sign for a 68.

Tim Clark turned in a 1-over-par 39-34=73 in the final round of the Masters to finish in a tie for 11th at 2-under 286 with John Huh, securing an invitation to the 2014 tournament.

Joining Clark inside the top 12 and punching tickets to Augusta National are Angel Cabrara, Adam Scott, Jason Day, Marc Leishman, Tiger Woods, Thorbjorn Olesen, Brandt Snedeker, Sergio Garcia, Lee Westwood, Matt Kuchar and Huh. Previously, the top 16 and ties have been exempt into the following year's Masters, but with the inclusion of the Fall Series winners into the field that number has been reduced to 12.

Tim Clark lit up August National for a 5-under-par 31-36=67 in the third round of the Masters and has posted the clubhouse lead at 3-under 213 just minutes after the final pairing walked off the first tee.

Despite not being a long player on a monster of a golf course, Clark managed to circled five birdies on his first seven holes in a blemish-free front nine. He added a birdie at the par-5 13th, then gave a bogey at the par-4 14th. His highlight would come on the par-3 16th, nearly holing his tee shot and tapping in for an easy birdie before surrendering a final bogey at the 18th. This week's performance is not without precedent, as he was second to Phil Mickelson here in 2006.

Tim Clark turned in a 2-under-par 35-35=70 for his opening round of the Masters, finishing four strokes in arrears of the clubhouse lead.

Since sharing 13th place at the Masters in 2009, the South African has missed three straight cuts and hasn't broken 73 in six rounds. That drought ended today thanks to six birdies against four bogeys. He hit 13 greens in regulation and took 29 putts.

Tim Clark will make his 12th start in the Masters this week.

Clark experienced a close call with his runner-up to Phil Mickelson in 2006. His history in this event has been largely unpredictable, with four top-15 finishes and six missed cuts. This is probably due to his lack of length. For him to contend, his wedge game must be perfect.

Tim Clark eliminated Thorbjørn Olesen in the Snead Bracket 3 and 2 in the second round of the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship.

Clark was virtually nails today. He suffered only one bogey, which led to one of just two wins for Olesen, who never held a lead. Clark picked off five wins, three of which with birdies, one with a par and another thanks to a concession at the par-4 10th hole. The match ended with par halves at the par-3 16th hole. Clark is familiar with success in the first two rounds at Dove Mountain. In his only two previous trips (2009, 2010), he advanced to the third round in both. In tomorrow's third round, he'll face the winner of Ian Poulter v. Bo Van Pelt.

Tim Clark played an excellent final round at the Sony Open, but his 7-under-par 33-30=63 left him three strokes behind his playing partner, Russell Henley.

Clark gave the rookie all he could handle, including circling birdies on his final four holes, but Henley managed to close the door by making birdies on his last five. At the end of the day, Clark's 21-under 259 will go down in the record books as his 11th runner-up on the PGA TOUR. He now heads to the Humana Challenge, where he owns two runner-ups in four starts and 19 of 20 rounds under par. Expect him to be a factor at PGA West.

Tim Clark finds himself alone in third place at the Sony Open after a 4-under-par 32-34=66 in the third round.

His 14-under 196 trails the dynamic rookie duo of Russell Henley and Scott Langley by three. He will feel like the outside in tomorrows final grouping, as the rookies have played the first 54 holes together. Clark had a busy opening nine, with four birdies and a bogey on the card. Things became a little more mundane on the inward nine, as he plodded to eight pars before making a birdie on the par-5 18th.

Tim Clark followed up his opening 64 at the Sony Open in Hawaii with a bogey-free, 4-under-par 33-33=66 to reach the midpoint in 10-under 132, good for a share of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

He loves himself some Waialae. After circling six birdies on Thursday, Clark netted an eagle and two more birdies today, all the while maintaining a spotless scorecard. In fact, both of his longest conversions were for par -- 15'8" at the 13th hole and 10'8" at the 17th.

Tim Clark crafted a bogey-free, 6-under-par 32-32=64 in his opening round of the Sony Open in Hawaii, good for a share of the clubhouse lead.

Right on cue. Having been prevented from competing last year due to elbow surgery, Clark hasn't played Waialae since a co-runner-up in 2011. He picked up right where he left off though, converting six birdies to catch Scott Piercy. Five of Clark's birdies dropped in from beyond 10 feet, including a pair from just outside 17 feet (at holes 16 and 1), but the highlight was a zero-putt six-yarder from the fringe at the 18th, his ninth of the round. He also poured in a par save from 12'1" at 4.

Tim Clark rebounded from an elbow injury in 2011 to secure 11 of 20 cuts in 2012, including a runner-up to Sergio Garcia at the Wyndham Championship.

Clark was third in driving accuracy, but his long putter still lost strokes relative to the field to the clip of 0.123 per round. It will be interesting to see if he begins to experiment with any other putting methods in 2013 ahead of the pending rule change, as he is one of the longest running long putters on TOUR. He was born with a condition that he claims prevents him from using a standard putter.

Tim Clark was removed from the published field of this week's Frys.com Open.

The South African missed the cut in Vegas last week in what was his 20th start of the year. He's fully exempt on the PGA TOUR through 2015 by virtue of his victory at THE PLAYERS in 2010, but he's 55th on this season's money list, impressive given he didn't return from elbow surgery until February.

Tim Clark swallowed bogeys on three of his last five holes on the way to a 1-over-par 34-38=72 in the final round of The Barclays.

Clark looked to be a contender when he made it through the front nine with three birdies and a bogey, but couldn't keep up the pace. The culprit was the irons, as he only managed to land eight GIR. Each of his four bogeys were products of missed greens, as did not suffer any 3-putts.
