The Tom Kim train just keeps chugging along.
After securing his second win on Tour at the Shriners Children’s Open, the 20-year-old rising star wasted no time hopping a plane to Japan for his first appearance at the Zozo Championship – what will mark his first time ever playing in the country. It’s also the first time Kim has been close to home – just a short flight away from Seoul, South Korea – in a “long time.”
“I'm excited. I've heard so many great things about it, and I'm enjoying it,” Kim said Wednesday.
When Kim tees it up on Thursday, he’ll do so as the highest-ranked Asian in the world at No.
