Kevin Kisner is at it again. Kiz, a known match play assassin is off to a 2-0-0 start at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. Kisner is set to face off against Justin Thomas in round three of the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play on Friday at 12:38 p.m.

While Kisner needs to win or tie to advance, Thomas is off to a 1-1-0 start and needs to win, with a few different scenarios dependent on others. A potential three-way playoff could ensue with a Thomas win and Lucas List victorious as well.

While J.T.  is certainly seeking revenge from last year’s defeat at the hands of Kiz, the latter could simply let his match play record speak for itself. But he won’t. And that’s one of the reasons Kiz is so good at match play.

The Georgia Bulldog fanatic will not only let his putter do the talking tomorrow, he will make sure the Alabama fan in Thomas hears his arsenal of trash talk.

Pairing an impressive T-4 at the Valspar with the return of his right-hand man and caddie, Duane “Dewey” Bock from a brief illness, all signs point to a Bulldog win over the Crimson Tide.

Kisner proves time and time again his grit in match play.

If nothing else, the 12:38 tee time is worth watching for the back and forth between the two. 

Match play definitely ain’t no hobby.

Great article. I’ll definitely tune in to watch this face off now. Nothing like some healthy competition.
