The Wall Street Journal dives into the legend of former PGA Tour player Anthony Kim under the header, "Golf’s hottest young star vanished for a decade. Now he's finally coming back." It’s more than a decade now since Kim "disappeared from professional golf." The former PGA Tour supernova, who "exploded into stardom with his booming drives and a bunch of wins in his early 20s," hasn’t competed in a pro tournament since 2012. His "abrupt departure" made him "the game’s enduring mystery, and created a new pastime for golf insiders: whispering about the possibility that he might one day return." Now Kim is poised to make his "long-anticipated comeback," and he has picked "somewhere far from the PGA Tour spotlight" to emerge from the shadows: Saudi Arabia. Kim, now 38 years old, is set to compete this week in his first professional event since 2012 at LIV Golf Jeddah. That makes him "the latest splashy addition" for the Saudi-backed circuit, which wooed Masters champion Jon Rahm away from the PGA Tour to "bolster its lineup before the season."
