Kirk leads at St. Jude after ace, Matsuyama second after turbulent week

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- Hideki Matsuyama lost his wallet in London and lost his caddie and coach for the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs from thieves who snatched their bag, but none of that seemed to bother the Japanese star Thursday at the start of the PGA Tour's postseason.

Chris Kirk made a hole-in-one on his way to a 6-under 64 for a one-shot lead in the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Olympic gold medalist Scottie Scheffler and double major winner Xander Schauffele, the best two players in golf, were right in the mix as expected.
