Summary
Tom Kim just made history, capturing his first PGA Tour win since late 2023 with a flawless, bogey-free 64 at the Genesis Scottish Open — a stunning comeback after a rough stretch where he fell out of the top 100. The 24-year-old, once world-ranked 11th at just 21, now looks like a force again, having also finished third at the U.S. Open. His clutch shot on the 16th — a 203-yarder to six feet — sealed the win and marked one of his best career shots. Kim’s confidence? Built on a solid iron shot on the second hole, even with a missed putt. His victory also makes him the first South Korean to win the Scottish Open, and he’s poised to leap back into the top 30 in the world and climb to 32nd in the FedEx Cup. Meanwhile, Korn Ferry’s Johnny Keefer snagged a last-minute Open spot, and Rory McIlroy tied for seventh, feeling closer than ever to peak form for The Open.
