Imagine returning to the spotlight after a 12-year hiatus. Once hailed as one of golf’s brightest young stars. Expectations would be sky-high. Fans would be watching closely, wondering, will this comeback rewrite history or fade into nostalgia? For Anthony Kim, it’s a question that’s becoming harder to ignore. The 40-year-old American, once a dominant force on the PGA Tour, continues to battle through a rocky return to professional golf after being relegated from the Saudi backed LIIB golf league. And though his determination hasn’t wavered, his latest comments raised deeper questions about whether his return is truly worth it. Speaking at the Matai Singapore Open, Kim made his intentions clear, saying, “This is something I am looking forward to, and yes, regardless, I am going to play for a few more years.” But as optimistic as that sounds, the numbers tell a different story. After finishing 55th in the 2025 LIIB standings, Kim officially fell into the league’s drop zone. Despite his wildcard entry last season, not even that could save him from relegation. His best results, T-25 at LIIV Golf Dallas and T-29 at LIIV Golf Miami, were respectable, but far from the standard needed to stay in the ultra competitive circuit. Even outside of LIIV, his struggles have continued. At the Singapore Open, he finished T43, another middling result that underscores his inability to find the rhythm he once had before his 12-year break from the game. As oy, keep going. Kim’s answer is both simple and sincere. I don’t know how long I want to play golf for, but this is something I am committed to. I am motivated to play as good as I can, work as hard as I can, and the results will speak for themselves. That motivation still burns bright. Kim plans to compete in the Ali Golf Promotions event early next year, the league’s new gateway for relegated players to fight their way back in. And if that doesn’t pan out, he’s already set his sights on the Asian Tours International Series where he’s been making consistent appearances. I’m going to play some events on the International Series and Asian Tour, Kim explained. But it’s a long way over here, and part of my comeback is being with my family, so we’ll pick a few events to play. For Kim, the future looks like a careful balancing act, playing enough tournaments to stay sharp while managing his body, travel, and family commitments. Though he has yet to break into the top 25 in his recent starts, the 2008 Rder Cup star remains committed to the grind. But as Kim fights for redemption, he’s far from the only LIIV golfer dealing with the brutal reality of relegation. Since LIIV Golf introduced its promotion and relegation system, the competition has grown fiercer than ever. No contract guarantees safety anymore. Players now live and die by their seasonlong performances. Those finishing 49th or lower on the standings face automatic relegation. This year, some familiar faces found themselves on the wrong side of the cut. Henrik Stenson finished 49th, just inside the drop zone, missing safety by a razor thin 0.38 margin. At the Indianapolis event, a finish inside the top 20 would have secured his card, but AT22 results sealed his fate. Despite being the 2016 Open champion, Stenson admitted his shortcomings, saying, “I had the worst season out of the team, and I’m the one in the worst spot. You’ve just got to deal with it and move forward.” Andy Ogultree, who finished 50th, shared a similar fate. His performance throughout the season mirrored Stenson’s struggles, a mix of potential and inconsistency that ultimately left him outside the safe zone. Meanwhile, Mito Pereira’s relegation came with mixed emotions. His team, Torque GC, celebrated a win at the Indianapolis event, but his personal standing T36 wasn’t enough to save his individual card. True to his character, Pereira took the setback with grace, saying, “I was really happy for Sebastian Munoz, Jooko, Neiman, and Carlos Ortiz.” “It’s never easy to play bad, but I tried my best and we move on. Hopefully, I’ll have more opportunities in the future.” Other players like Eubin Jen 53rd, Frederick Jetrop 57th, and Max Rottluff 59th also saw their LIIV seasons come to an E and D. as the dust settles. LIIB Golf’s new open circuit era has proven one thing. No name is too big to fall. Every shot, every finish, and every round matters more than ever before. And for Anthony Kim, that’s both the challenge and the motivation to prove that the heart of a champion doesn’t fade, even when the results do. His comeback story may be far from complete. But one thing is certain, he’s not ready to walk away just yet.
