 Re: Will cork pads fix my "waterlogging" issue?

Well, all this talk of surface tension is above my pay grade. It's still water in the bore that runs onto the pads.
For the sake of the OP, as far as practicality is concerned, if you can turn your playing position slightly, as Paul suggested, and/or swab frequently, hopefully you can minimize the problem.
I swab after warming up and after every piece; and during intermission, I blow out the upper joint and blot the side holes with a microfiber pad dryer. If you're generating condensation in the bore, it's just "the price of doing business".
FWIW.
