Anthony Kim Ends 12-Year Hiatus, Joins LIV Golf as Wild-Card
The former top-6 golfer's return to professional play is set for next weekend in Saudi Arabia, marking a significant comeback.
- Anthony Kim, once a top-6 golfer, is set to make a return to professional golf after a 12-year hiatus, playing as a wild-card in the LIV Golf event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
- Kim's last PGA Tour event was in May 2012, after which he underwent surgery on his Achilles and vanished from the professional golf scene.
- Negotiations with LIV Golf and the PGA Tour have led to a one-year deal for Kim, which includes waiving a $10 million insurance policy.
- The LIV Golf event will feature Kim as one of two wild-card players, allowing him to earn individual prizes despite not being part of a team.
- Kim's return is highly anticipated, given his previous achievements, including three PGA Tour wins and a third-place finish at the Masters in 2010.
