Well well well what do we have look look what the cat drug in look the news that’s dropping Anthony Kim is back he’s back now I I mean we had the news out first right here we did we had it okay I dropped the podcast at night the one and
Then the next day everybody started talking about it now I don’t know if everybody started talking about it because of my podcast but we broke the news here got zero credit from everybody they claim to break the news whatever do your thing we know you and I know what
Happened and I’m grateful to my sources thank you very much you know who you are and you know we’ve got certain people in certain places that have um revealed news to me other news too that I haven’t even talked about yet so you know we we try to keep
Things um precise we try to be accurate we said Anthony Kim and Victor hin now Victor hin has been going back and forth from what we were hearing he was in at the table not at the table back and then he you know I break the news that it’s
Him and Anthony Kim and then everybody talks about Anthony Kim and again no credit no credit for the Mr short game podcast but whatever whatever we’re going to be adults about this barely but a little bit so anyways so okay then Anthony then hin goes back and says no
And then he’s and then he was back at the table just the other day but you know it’s a fluid situation to say the least now Anthony Kim rumor also has that he was go the guys who do full swing all right um were doing a documentary of Anthony Kim and and
Halfway through it he Anthony Kim stopped and they were not obviously not thrilled that’s what I’ve heard on the rumor mill but so there you go so he’s there you go now this is being reported now that Anthony Kim is joining live for the Wild Card spots brilliant move uh
We’re going to talk about what those Wild Card Card spots are and how they could really um be a benefit for a guy like Anthony Kim and whoever gets the other one that week like it’s week to week right but they’re Wild Card spots we’re expecting Anthony’s return March
1st which would put us in this is kind of a bummer but the first tournament right now is in MOBA then we go to Las Vegas February 8th through 10th then we go March 1st through 3 in uh Saudi Arabia so it looks like March 1st Anthony Kim wild card
Spot one of the two wild card spots Saudi Arabia then March 8th through 10th is Hong Kong if you still has a wild card spot we’ll see and then hopefully we get to see him for the first time in the United States April 5th through 7th at the Trump National Dural in
Miami right so that would be cool first US sighting of Anthony Kim playing golf in Miami I’m going to do whatever I can to get down there April 5th through 7th then they go to Australia Singapore then Houston would be out of this world given the fact that AK is like living in
Dallas so that would be June 7th through 9th and then we’re in Nashville June 21st through 23rd awesome could be there then they go to Spain United Kingdom and finish the season off uh well there’s some other events but Green Brier so that’s what we’re looking at for Anthony Kim hasn’t
Played since like 2012 over 10 years he’s been Bigfoot he’s been just this mythical you golfing legend that has disappeared so wild card spot here’s what’s interest interesting about these Wild Card spots is this how do they apply to your PGA Tour status all right okay so check it
Out they have 13 teams four players a team so they need like two more Wild Card two spots to make 54 players which is pretty pretty good because live is 54 they play 54 hole so kind of rounds things off instead of in a nice number so they’re given two wild card
Spots these are not you’re not on a team right you’re just playing in the in the tournament so this is interesting because these captains these team owners could have an opportunity to pick up one of the wild cards make them an offer and then this potential Wild Card person
Could have their pick of hey okay I want to be on this team or that team or whatever so right now the the captains or the owners of the teams are playing you know in 10 15 20 years they’re not going to be playing right they’re just
Going to be owners of a team like a football team owner like let’s say Arthur Blank the Falcons owner right he don’t play but many many years ago he didn’t play but like if you when the NFL began like if you wanted to own a team
It might go to some of these well-known players like that’s what they’re doing here in golf like how do we get you to come to our league here’s a team you’re the owner you’re a partial owner you have interest ownership of the league of the team so we’re talking about that
Because right now it’s difficult for a player one of the teammates to like tell another guy you’re out of here we’re cutting you off the team whereas if you’re just the owner you don’t play anymore then it’s easy you have a relationship but at the end of the day
You’re like hey you’re out we’re going to let you go we’re going to bring in somebody else that’s how that’s ultimately probably going to work but right now these Wild Card guys that’s interesting because you could see them play and say and make them an offer to be part of your team so
It also depends on the contracts of the players uh you know on the other teams what’s my contract okay I’m on The Crushers or the aces or whatever the Ripper GC those weird names but whatever you’re you’re under contract what your contract say as a captain you might sign
A guy for hey we’re week to week with you we’re going to have you come in week to week we don’t know it’s a weekly contract which means another team could offer that guy a contract and he can move over maybe they say hey we want you
For the whole year and you move like it’s your free agent or you sign a contract for six events or two years whatever it is right and you we’re going to pay you maybe the owner of the team could say hey I’m going to give you a higher percentage of our team winnings
If you’re on our team there’s all kinds of fascinating ways you can go structure your team or recruit and entice players to join your team so these Wild Card spots though are interesting because if you go and you play in a wild card spot technically you’re not a live player
You’re not on a team team so what does the PGA Tour stance on those guys this is an interesting um revolving door so to speak so you could play a PGA Tour event and then say hey I’m not going to play this week I’m going to be a wild card I
Didn’t I’m not join and live I’m just GNA play in that event that as a wild card I’m not on a team I’m just a wild card there’s a gray area there and for a guy like Anthony Kim it’s perfect because he he still can get uh PGA Tour
Exemptions he still has you know past Champion status where he can get into advents he has like he might qualify for the major medical injury where he can come back and have so many events to make certain amount of money and then Earnest tour card which is very
Difficult but he had an injury major injury he’s been out for a long time so he could have some of that um you know use those to get into some events so this is a great way for a guy like him to kind of test the waters of live and
Say to the PGA Tour look I’m not ready to come back to the PGA Tour just yet my game’s just we don’t know where my game is in competition so here’s what I’m going to do Liv is offering me wild card spots what do you say I go over there
And play and just kind of get in shape and see where I’m at and then if I’m good then you guys can see what those sponsors can see me play and we can kind of gauge the fan interest which is going to be off the charts and then we can go
Play on a PGA Tour event so Anthony Kim he could be playing two sides of the field here we don’t really know we’re going to find out but all we know now is that Anthony Kim is coming back and he’s GNA play on a live event most likely March 1st man I sure
Hope it’s earlier like in Las Vegas cuz that’s coming up and that would be so sick but he might want to just say look I don’t want all that would be crazy that place would go nuts I would be everybody would be there you guarantee it it would be off the Vegas Anthony
Kim might be too much for anybody to handle but if that were the case that would be crazy so being gone so long he might say look I need to ease my way back into it we’re going to go as far away as possible to Saudi Arabia where you
Know they don’t know who he is he’s just whatever there’s not even that many fans at the the Saudi uh tournament last year so it was pretty light so it might be a perfect entry point for Anthony Kim if I’m him that’s probably the way I would
Do it but if I’m me I’m rooting for him to come to Vegas so let’s just all put the pressure out there Anthony Kim he’ll be back you heard it here first look you heard it here first you know it and well I don’t care what anybody says we got

Any time you want to come build me a statue with ProV1s you’re welcome to do so! I’ll even pay for your flight haha
I call all in Vegas baby!!!!!! Go big or go home!
As for wildcards and playing on the PGAT, I couldn't give a shit what the PGAT stance is. The last 2 years has shown how the PGAT had and is screwing it's players unless your in the old boys club.
🤣"We are gonna be adults about this…barely"
Dang! Vegas woulda been nice to see him debut there.
Not really seeingwhat AK would bring to LIV. Lots of great rookies and international golfers
AK is not going to move the needle from Empty tank. Old news , nothing there . Yeah Viktor Hovland Too Funny . Jack Nicklaus say's know way .
Too bad he’s going to LIV, understand why but too bad. Have not seen any LIV events and avoid all LIV res as much as possible. Not watch any LIV.
I do 100% believe it I was just super busy working and the first thing I seen was from colt knost with @subparpodcast.
You da Man, Matt!!!
Matt, are you gonna do the highlights like you did for the qualifiers? We loved those
Was Kim out on injury and getting Millions on an insurance policy. As long as he did not play? Maybe I am confusing him with someone else.
You came with it first!
You deserve credit for getting that one if it happens. Hovland will still go next year with Rory if no deal is reached.
If Anthony Kim plays well, he could become part of team next year. But, the spots could also be used to sign new players during season.
I'll give u credit so it's not everybody
Hovland still going or you just make that up ??
Hell yeah! AK!
Glad he's able to exhibit his skills in the new World Exhibition No Cut Traveling Stick and Ball Tour!
To call it golf would be inaccurate.
Heard it here first
LIV is perfect for AK. The fields are full of has-beens who can no longer break 80 or make a cut on the PGA Tour. He just needs one of those deals like Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer got where they can finish last in every tournament and still get paid forever. He doesn't want to end up like Chase Koepka, James Piot, Jediah Morgan, or Sihwan Kim.
You we're definitely the first!
We all know the only haterz here are Gen Z'ers who dont know golf history.. A. KIM knows he has support of all of Golf.. I know i cant wait to see how good he is now.
I broke the news a year ago when I left a comment on a YouTube video of him driving through LA
AK47 in Las Vegas.
Haven't seen him yet. Any updates!?!?
