Falls in playoff in Detroit
June 29, 2025
Kirk was defeated by Aldrich Potgieter in a playoff at the Rocket Classic after shooting a five-under 67 in the final round.
ANALYSIS
Kirk came into the final round just two shots behind the 54-hole leader of Potgieter. He got off to a strong start with two birdies in the first three holes. He added birdies at 7, 9 and 10 to put some pressure on the final grouping of Potgieter and Max Greyserman, both gunning for their first victories. After a birdie on 17 for Kirk, he had a shot to potentially put it out of reach on 18. His putt would just slip by, but 22-under-par was enough to join a playoff with Potgieter and Greyserman. Kirk showed his experience on the first playoff hole hitting a great approach, while the other two players had long birdie looks. Unfortunately the putt for the win would slide by again. After a poor approach on the second playoff hole, Kirk ended up three-putting and was eliminated from the playoff. The 40-year-old has won six times on the PGA Tour, but No. 7 will have to wait. This was Kirk's first top-10 all season, so it's hard to be too upset with a T2. He will look to carry this play into the rest of the season, starting at the John Deere Classic next week.
