Clutch Final Par Gives Kirk Win at Colonial, Denies Spieth

FORT WORTH, Texas — Chris Kirk was prepared to need a putt for a playoff at Colonial.

No extra holes were necessary Sunday for Kirk to get his fourth PGA Tour victory.

Kirk made up for an errant tee shot at No. 18 with a par-saving and winning 7-foot putt after playing partner Brandt Snedeker's birdie try slid by the hole.

"My first three wins on tour have all been little tap-ins on the last hole," Kirk said. "So to step up and make a putt that I knew was to win is something I'll never forget.
