Chris Kirk Continues Search For Putting Form at TPC Craig Ranch
Chris Kirk caught lightning in a bottle in Round 3 of last week's PGA Championship, posting a 65 and eyeing a top-10 finish. It wasn't to be, as he went backwards on Sunday to fall outside the top 40. The tee to green play hasn't been terrible for the 41-year-old, but his putter has been MIA all season. He's making the start at this week's CJ Cup Byron Nelson for the first time since 2011. The ball striking form is always a bright spot on the surface, but deeper digging shows a vulnerability outside of 175 yards, which will be in play a lot around TPC Craig Ranch. Plus, the incredibly high importance level that strokes gained putting has at this golf course isn't favorable for a player who ranks 131st in that metric for the season. Consider Kirk a risky DFS choice with very limited upside.
