Published

Wherefore art thou, Anthony Kim? At a rooftop in Dallas enjoying life, it would appear.

The latest sighting of the cult legend that is AK has got golf fans wishing once more that a return to golf for the enigmatic Texan could be on the cards, who showed up in a rare sighting over the weekend on social media.

Kim was spotted alongside former coach Adam Schriber on the latter’s Instagram account, accompanied by the caption: “2021 is going to be special.”

As you can see from the above photo, Kim is now sporting a full sleeve tattoo on his left arm, and still looks in excellent physical shape.

As for a return to golf for the man who hasn’t appeared on tour since 2012? It may be a pipe dream, but it is most definitely a New Year’s wish for fans, with the majority of users under the post baying for a return to golf for AK.

Incidentally, it wasn’t the only Anthony Kim sighting over Christmas either. Former Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops was photographed off the cuff at a bar over the holiday period with a stranger…who just happened to be the now 35-year-old Kim.

Nine years may have now passed. But it hasn’t stopped us dreaming.

Rory McIlroy takes shot at Greg Norman while discussing Monday’s Saudi PIF meeting

Published

on

Rory McIlroy has recently changed his tune on both LIV and the Saudi Arabian PIF, but according to recent comments, he still isn’t a big fan of LIV Golf CEO, Greg Norman.

While speaking to the media after his final round of the PLAYERS Championship, McIlroy expressed optimism for PIF Governor Yasir al-Rumayyan’s intentions in the game of golf.

“They’re a sovereign wealth fund. They want to park money for decades and not worry about it,” McIlroy said of the PIF.

“They want to invest in smart and secure businesses, and the PGA Tour is definitely one of those, especially if they’re looking to invest in sport in some way.I have spent time with Yasir. I think the people who have represented him in LIV have done him a disservice, so Norman and those guys.

Reportedly, a meeting will be taking place in Ponte Vedra today with the PGA Tour Board of Directors and the PIF. According to Bob Harig of Sports Illustrated, that meeting will include Tiger Woods.

“I think it should have happened months ago, so I am glad it’s happening,” Rory said.

“Hopefully that progresses conversations and gets us closer to a solution.”

Scottie Scheffler had an interesting response when asked how he ‘quiets the noise’ following Players victory

Published

on

After Scottie Scheffler’s incredibly impressive victory at the PLAYERS Championship, he spoke on camera about his approach.

Golf Channel’s Brandel Chamblee asked the world number one “how do you quiet the noise?”

Scheffler replied, “I just try to do my best to stay in my own little world. You know, I don’t have social media, I spend most of my time on Apple News.”

Scheffler added that he clicks “not for me” when golf articles come up to ensure that he doesn’t see anything regarding golf news.

“I really just do my best to stay out of reading things that are either good or bad about myself. If I’m reading bad things about myself, it’ll frustrate me. If I read good things about myself, my head will get too big. So, I really do my best to stay out of the fray and continue to put in the work”.

Scheffler’s approach has clearly been a good one, as he’s playing some of the best golf of any professional in recent memory.
