ANTHONY KIM: The golf course played a little bit tougher in my opinion. [1]

As Kim, the father of PGA Tour rookie Anthony Kim, trailed his son during the third round of last week’s Bob Hope Chrysler Classic ‘ an occasion the elder Kim should have celebrated as a watershed event ‘ it was impossible to keep the unremitting demons of the past at bay. [...] It’s a life lesson that, even at 65 years old, Paul Kim is learning to accept. [2]

“This has been a dream of mine to play on the PGA Tour, and I wasn’t going to sit. [...] Anthony Kim set a course record during the first round at the AT&T National tournament. [1]

It’s a story about a nonconforming, headstrong kid from Los Angeles who discovered though he loved golf, he didn’t always fit into the game’s often exclusive world. [2]

In the 2007 U.S. Open, he carded a final round 67 earning him a tie for 20th place (he started the day at T57). [...] In May 2008, Kim won his first PGA Tour tournament at the Wachovia Championship, defeating former British Open champion Ben Curtis by five shots. [3]

Woods missed only two fairways and three greens, shooting his lowest round since the 2007 Tour Championship. [1]

So not long after his course-record 62 Thursday to take a two-shot lead in the first round of the AT&T National, Kim hopped into the middle seat of a cart and held on as it zoomed down a cart path. [...] Kenny Perry posted a two-under 68 Friday and remained atop the leaderboard when the second round of the Travelers Championship was suspended for the day. [4]

He earned $1,152,000 for his victory, and reached a new career high of 16th in the world rankings. [3]

Kim refused to take the advice and decided to play in the tournament anyway. [...] Kim, who turned 24 last week, has been viewed as the next great American golfer, but he arrived Tuesday at the Travelers Championship trying to right a season gone wrong. [1]

In September 2008, Kim was a critical part of the United States’ victory in the Ryder Cup, defeating Ryder Cup veteran Sergio Garc?a 5 & 4 in the first match of the Sunday single matches. [3]
