On the 27th (local time), the American Golf Channel released a video showing Anthony Kim training at the practice range of the Royal Greens Golf & Country Club in King Abdullah Economic City, Saudi Arabia. The Royal Greens Golf & Country Club is the battleground for the LIV Golf Jeddah tournament (total prize money of $25 million), which will be held for three days starting March 1. The practice range where Anthony Kim was spotted is the official range for the tournament.


Anthony Kim wore a cap with the LIV Golf logo. Instead of golf wear, he wore shorts that slightly covered his knees and a T-shirt, swinging his golf club vigorously. His driver swing was as fast and powerful as before. Unlike before, he did not hold the grip short.


Anthony Kim is making a comeback after 12 years since the 2012 PGA Tour Wells Fargo Championship. He is participating in the LIV tournament as a wildcard. He will compete as an individual without a team affiliation. Anthony Kim recently explored tournament participation. Over the past few months, he discussed his return with both the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. Ultimately, he decided to continue his career through LIV Golf, which is sponsored by the Saudi sovereign wealth fund.



It appears to be the result of a huge investment by LIV Golf, which flaunts enormous financial power, including paying Anthony Kim's insurance premiums on his behalf. Greg Norman (Australia), head of LIV Golf, welcomed Anthony Kim's return, saying, "It is an honor to have the opportunity to announce the rebirth of this player. Golf has been waiting for you."
