He was using drugs between holes at Augusta National. Contemplating suicide for two decades. Couldn't walk into rehab without help. Today he just beat two of the best golfers alive. One of, if not the greatest sports comeback stories of all time: Anthony Kim. Father. Husband. Three-time PGA Tour winner before age 25 - alongside only Tiger, Phil, Sergio, and Adam Scott. Then his Achilles ruptured in 2012. He vanished, for twelve years. He was battling drug and alcohol addiction daily. Using during majors. Making bathroom stops between holes just to get through the round. Contemplating ending his life for almost two decades while the world thought he was living the dream. His body eventually shut down. He could barely walk into rehab. His wife Emily and daughter Bella pulled him back. He got a second chance with LIV Golf in 2024. Finished dead last. Didn't earn a single point in two full seasons. Got relegated from the league in August. Most people would've quit. He showed up every single day and worked to get 1% better after being cut from the league. He earned his spot back through a qualifying tournament on pure merit. Today, in the final round at LIV Adelaide, playing alongside Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm - two of the biggest names in golf - he came back from a 5-shot starting deficit and has just shot nine under to win the golf tournamnet. This man was ready to leave this earth. Now he just did the unthinkable. If that doesn't prove you can come back from anything, nothing will. It's never too late.

Anthony Kim delivered an incredible press conference after shooting a bogey free 10 under par 62 to finish T6 at LIV Golf Virginia and climb inside the top 200 in the world for the first time since 2012. “I don't give a shit what anybody thinks about me. I work hard. I stay with my family. Happy Mother's Day, Emily. To my mom, to all the moms that work hard, sacrifice for their children. “Yeah, I don't give a shit. This is what I do. I'm going to continue to keep working hard and keep getting better and see whatever happens.” He then was asked if 2026 AK could beat 2010 AK and he responded: “That's a good question. 2010 me might not have shown up. So I like this one better.” He then was asked about the support he’s received from the US fans this week: “Man, it's unbelievable. Obviously I played some decent golf 20 years ago where a few people knew who I was, but the amount of support I'm getting from people, not only from golfers, but people outside of golf fighting their own issues, because we all have them, has been nothing short of amazing. “I really can't believe how many people are influenced by me just trying to play golf. I know I'm very blessed to do it. So that's why it's on me to keep working hard.” AK also helped secure the team title for 4 Aces GC after Dustin Johnson picked AK over himself to play in the playoff. AK then hit an incredible recovery shot out of the wet rough with a fairway wood to set up a par and hole the winning putt. Whatever happens with LIV Golf in the future, Anthony Kim’s comeback has been a generational story and long may it continue👊 Anthony Kim 4Aces GC LIV Golf
