In case of a win, Kim will not just climb up the OWGR Rankings post his expected astonishing performance but will also win a large sum of money and add to his wealth. At the moment, Tom Kim is tying for the first position. Time will tell if destiny works out in his favor or not. Let’s see what happens if it does!

Tom Kim on his way to the top of the ladder

The 2023 Shriners Children’s Open has garnered a lot of attention. It started as Lexi Thompson being the seventh woman ever to compete at a PGA Tour event grabbed the public eye. However, since Lexi Thompson is officially out of the equation now as she failed to meet the cut, Tom Kim has become the main reason for global attention.

Kim is an extremely talented 21-year-old South Korean professional golfer. His touch on the greens has proven him worthy of praise time and again. At the moment, he is tied for first position at the PGA Tour’s 2023 Shriner Children’s Open.

If Tom Kim secures a win, it will not only be a monumental event in his career but it will also add a large sum of money to his wallet. Out of the $8.4 million purse, the winner of the Tournament will bag $1.51 million. This is not all, a win on this PGA Tour event will also translate into new career highs for Tom Kim.

This is because a win would mean that Kim’s OWGR ranking will possibly shoot up to eleventh in the world. This is a very big achievement as Kim will be very close to adding his name to the world’s top ten golfers. All this at just the age of 21 is a significant achievement and we hope it goes well for this talented young player.
