English amateur star Kris Kim will put GCSE revision on hold for an examination of a different kind and a PGA Tour debut at The CJ Cup Bryon Nelson.
The 16-year-old produced a stunning unbeaten performance on his Junior Ryder Cup debut last September as part of a memorable 2023, claiming three wins and a half in Team Europe’s record-breaking victory over Team USA in Rome.
Kim also enjoyed victories in the Boys’ Amateur Championship, European Boys’ Individual Championship and the McGregor Trophy last year, with Kim now getting the opportunity to test his game against the stars of the PGA Tour.

Lovely young lad. Articulate, level-headed and intelligent. He will go far and we really hope he does. Best of luck to you Kris! Cheers from Australia – David and family (we're all mad golfers…)
Hopefully you guys don’t find out he stole a piece of candy when he was 8.
