"I probably wouldn’t have the family"- Chris Kirk talks about his addiction

Chris Kirk has kept himself away from alcohol for the last four years to improve his health. He has battled alcoholism in the past. Speaking about his addiction, Kirk said:

"Yeah, I owe everything that I have in my entire life to my sobriety. I wouldn’t be doing this for a living anymore. I probably wouldn’t have the family that I have currently anymore. I came really close to losing everything that I cared about."
“For that to have happened and worked out for me, obviously there were some decisions that I made, but mostly the grace of God and a lot of other people that really helped me along the way," he added. "But yeah, it’s something that’s constantly on my mind, so it’s pretty easy for me to see that winning the Honda Classic is kind of a bonus when literally every good thing I have in my life I owe to that.”

He went on to talk about his breaking point and added:

“I was just fighting it and fighting it. Finally, after a couple of relapses, if that is what you want to call it, in April it was just like, ‘OK, I can’t do this anymore. I have got to change something because I am going to end up with nothing. It was when I realized I just really, truly do not have control over this, because I really wanted to not be doing it and I still was.”
