Kirk Lyle Muyres (born June 29, 1990) is a Canadian curler from Martensville, Saskatchewan. He is a former Canadian junior champion and currently plays third for the Steve Laycock team.
As a youth, Muyres was a member of the Saskatchewan team at the 2007 Canada Winter Games, where he played 5th.
For much of his junior career, Muyres played third for the Josh Heidt rink. The team played in their first provincial men's championship in 2010 when Muyres was just 19. The team won one game in the event. After the season, Muyres left the team to play for the Braeden Moskowy rink at third. The team won the Saskatchewan Junior championships that year, earning the rink the right to represent Saskatchewan at the 2011 Canadian Junior Curling Championships. At the Canadian Juniors, the team- which also included Colton Flasch and Matt Lang- went undefeated (12-0) through the round robin, and proceeded to win the event by defeating Ontario's Mathew Camm in the final. The team would go on to represent Canada at the 2011 World Junior Curling Championships where they would find less success. The team found themselves in 4th place after the round robin with a 6-3 record. The team beat Norway (Steffen Mellemseter) in their first playoff match, but in the semi-final they lost to Switzerland (Peter de Cruz), and then lost to Norway again in the bronze medal game. After the World Juniors, the team played in their first Grand Slam event, the 2011 Players' Championship where they surprised many by making into the quarterfinals.
After juniors, Muyres and Moskowy stuck together as a team, adding D. J. Kidby and Dustin Kidby to their front-end. The team competed in many events on the World Curling Tour over the 2011-12 season, winning one event, the 2011 DEKALB Superspiel. The team also played in the 2012 provincial men's championship, where they won just one game. After the season, the team broke up, and Muyres joined the Steve Laycock rink.
