The winner of the Sentry last week, Chris Kirk, apparently played lefty for 2 months this past year and shot an 82. There’s a reason that we are not all professionally athletes.
Chris Kirk didn’t touch his right-handed clubs for two months after BMW Championship.

Today, Kirk leads by one @TheSentry.
