Twelve years later, Anthony Kim is returning to competitive golf. On LIV Golf. In Saudi Arabia.
What We Know About Anthony Kim's Return
Anthony Kim, who hasn't competed in professional golf in twelve years, is making his return to the sport on LIV Golf in Saudi Arabia. This news has surprised many fans who remember Kim's promising career back in 2012.
On the Golf Channel Podcast with Rex & Lav, the hosts discuss what we know about Kim's return and analyze the limited snippets of his gameplay that have been released so far. They also speculate on the potential fallout of Kim's return, both positive and negative.
The Long-Term Commitment
Unlike a one-time appearance, Anthony Kim is committed to playing the rest of the LIV season, indicating that his return is not a temporary comeback but a more long-term endeavor.
This decision has raised questions among fans and experts about whether Kim can regain his previous form and adapt to the changes in the golfing landscape over the past twelve years.
The Strategy Behind the Silence
One intriguing aspect of Anthony Kim's return is the absence of a pre-tournament press conference. The hosts on the Golf Channel Podcast discuss this strategy and analyze the potential reasons behind it.
By avoiding public appearances and interviews before the tournament, Kim may be trying to maintain focus and minimize distractions. However, this approach also leaves fans and media speculating about his state of mind and preparedness for the competition.
Other Topics in the Podcast
Aside from Anthony Kim's return, the Golf Channel Podcast with Rex & Lav covers various other topics, including Talor Gooch's comments about the possibility of a 'Masterisk' if Rory McIlroy wins without top players in attendance and the latest updates from the policy board meetings.
The hosts also share personal anecdotes, such as Rex's TV-shortened round at Harbour Town and his encounter with an enthusiastic employee.
