Kim Earns First PGA Tour Title

August 8, 2022 by PGA Tour Brunch

Kim’s Win at the Wyndham Marks End of Regular Season

GREENSBORO – Joohyung “Tom” Kim earned his first PGA Tour title at the Wyndham Championship, gaining full-time membership on the Tour for 2023 and qualifying for the upcoming FedEx Cup Playoffs. He will enter the Playoffs at No. 34 in the FedEx Cup standings.

At age 20 years, 1 month, 17 days, Kim is the second-youngest winner on the PGA TOUR since World War II, the youngest being Jordan Spieth, 2013 John Deere Classic). Kim is the first player born in the 2000s to win on Tour.

Kim made a quadruple bogey on his first hole of the tournament (No. 1 in R-1). He is the first player on record (since 1983) to make a quadruple bogey on the first hole of an event and go on to win and the fifth to record such a score on any hole and go on to win.

Kim joined the PGA Tour as a Special Temporary Member after The Open Championship and is the first Special Temporary Member to win on Tour since Collin Morikawa at the 2019 Barracuda Championship.

Kim’s front-nine (27) tied the second-lowest nine-hole score in PGA Tour history (15th instance of (27) or lower) and his final round (61) tied the fifth-lowest final-round score by a winner on record (since 1983).

Sungjae Im finished in a two-way tie for second place and moved to No. 10 in the FedExCup standings, earning $1 million through the Comcast Business Tour Top 10.

As has been a bit of a tradition, two players who didn’t enter the week in the Top 125 in the FedExCup standings moved-up to qualify for the FedExCup Playoffs:

  • Joohyung “Tom” Kim (entered the week as a Special Temporary Member)
  • Max McGreevy (entered the week at No. 126)

As CBS Sports signed-off the air yesterday so came an end to Sir Nick Faldo’s 16-year stint as the network’s lead golf analyst and commentator. Here is the final segment:

"I'm a single child and I've found, at 65, three brothers." ❤️
