On Wednesday, I was sitting on the driving range next to Rex Hoggard of Golfweek as we watched Anthony Kim prepare for the AT&T National. He seemed fresh, confident, and relaxed.
I followed Kim for five holes during the pro-am, and he hit several superb shots, including one out of the rough on the par-4 3rd that I recorded in the video below.
Kim won the AT&T earlier today by two strokes over Fredrik Jacobson after firing a 5-under 65. He's the first player since Tiger Woods to win twice in a year before the age of 25.
The PGA Tour needed a young gun to step up in Tiger's absence, and Kim is the first one to do so.
