Surrey and England amateur sensation Kris Kim is set to make his PGA Tour debut at THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson in Texas, facing the biggest test of his golfing career just weeks before his GCSE exams. Kim, a member at Walton Heath Golf Club, had a remarkable 2023 season with victories in top amateur events including the Boys’ Amateur Championship, European Boys’ Individual Championship, and the McGregor Trophy. His undefeated performance at the Junior Ryder Cup highlighted his rising talent in the golfing world.
At just 16 years old, Kim is the first amateur to be sponsored by the Korea-based CJ Group, joining a prestigious roster of tour players. His experience playing on the Ryder Cup course at Marco Simone has prepared him for the challenge of competing against the game’s biggest stars on the PGA Tour. Kim expressed his excitement for the opportunity and looks forward to playing in front of large crowds once again.
Kim’s family has a history in top-flight golf, with his mother, Ji-Hyun Suh, being a pioneer in Korean golf in the 1990s. Kim acknowledges the importance of his mother’s advice and coaching as he navigates the pressures of professional golf. His goal for his PGA Tour debut is to make the cut and gain valuable experience that will benefit his future in the sport.
Through the support of sponsors like Under Armour and TaylorMade, Kim’s progress in golf is set to be aided significantly. Under Armour has been a long-time supporter of Kim’s journey, and the apparel and footwear brand aligns with his values and work ethic. TaylorMade, a leading golf equipment company, has also signed Kim to an NIL contract, enhancing his opportunities and resources for success on the course.
Kim’s partnership with London-based sports management company Trinifold Sports further solidifies his position as a rising English talent in the golfing world. With a strong roster of players, including DP World Tour competitors Sam Bairstow and Will Enefer, Kim is in good company as he embarks on his professional golfing career. The young amateur golfer is eager to learn and grow from the experience of playing on the PGA Tour and expects to face new challenges along the way.
