Anthony Kim once a prominent figure on the PGA Tour is set to make a comeback after a 12 years hiatus joining the  LIV Golf. Kim return follows a reported $10 million insurance payout due to injuries that led to his unofficial retirement in 2012.

LIV signing of Kim has stirred nostalgia among fans but questions arise about the state of his game and body after such a long absence. LIV decision to grant Kim a wildcard spot raises concerns about prioritizing celebrity over sporting competition.

The move could impact LIV credibility and integrity especially as players like Bryson DeChambeau criticize the lack of ranking points in their events. While Kim return may draw attention there’s uncertainty about the success of this gamble for LIV.
