Chris Kirk is now defined by joy. The man who stepped away from the TOUR because of alcohol abuse and depression has regained satisfaction in his craft. At The Sentry, played at Kapalua’s Plantation Course in Hawaii, he withstood charges from Jordan Spieth and Sahith Theegala to score arguably the biggest win of his career.
“I lost the joy of most things in life for a while there,” said the 38-year-old Kirk after his one-shot victory.“ “But, yeah, it’s certainly back. I love the work that it takes to try to be the best version of myself. I definitely have fallen back in love with that process.”
