There are only a handful of days left in LIV Golf’s 2024 season and the rumor mill is churning! Recently, the news broke out that the Saudi-backed league has secured two new players. Adrian Meronk and Lucas Herbert are among the other key names who will be making their LIV Golf debut. Amidst all this, fans are still wondering what happened to Anthony Kim.

The American golfer was touted to be the next Tiger Woods. However, he disappeared from the limelight in 2012. But if the recent LIV Golf rumors are to be believed, he is bound to make a comeback soon!

Is Anthony Kim joining LIV Golf?

Internet personality Matt Fisher, who goes by Mr Short Game, recently reported that Viktor Hovland will now be joining forces with the rival league. This revelation caused an uproar on the internet. However, that was not all as he also mentioned another golfer, Anthony Kim, will be making his LIV Golf debut soon!

Fisher made a shocking revelation, stating, “From what my sources are telling me, this is not LIV going after Anthony Kim; it’s the other way around where Anthony Kim is pursuing LIV!” The YouTuber went on to state he heard rumors about the golfer sending audition clips to join.

But readers should take this information with a grain of salt, as there has been no official confirmation yet. Fisher himself states the audition clips of Anthony Kim, if they are real, are, “worth its weight in gold.” The American golfer was one of the most popular golfers during his peak, with fans calling him the next Tiger Woods.

His disappearance from the golf world was also one of the most talked about topics. He stopped playing golf due to his injuries in the last decade, but the reason he does not play is beyond that.

The reason why ‘the next Tiger Woods’ disappeared

During his career, Kim secured an insurance policy for his physical well-being. And when his injuries compelled him to temporarily withdraw from the sport, this insurance came in handy.

He began receiving monthly cheques, but insurance providers had a condition that these would stop the moment he participated again. It is said the payout sum grew day by day, reaching from $10 million to $20 million. If Kim played again, he would have to return this massive amount, and it was purportedly the main factor contributing to his extended hiatus.

But now the golfer is rumored to return the greens, this time alongside LIV Golf. Do you think Anthony Kim will finally return to the golf course? Let us know in the comments section below.
