The train apparently nearly left the station without Tom Kim on Sunday at Riviera.
A PGA Tour Live camera picked up Kim in a brisk trot to the first tee prior to his final-round tee time for the Genesis Invitational. Kim was scheduled to go off at 11 a.m. ET alongside Rickie Fowler, and with an announcer saying, “Kim is hustling, I mean, high-tailing it to the first tee because his tee time is just moments away,” it appears Kim cut things close.
The PGA Tour had recently seen a player miss his tee time. Lucas Glover mis-read a text and was still in his hotel room with his first-round tee time at the WM Phoenix Open just minutes away. He withdrew from the event and was replaced in the field.
The good news: Kim did make his tee time.
The bad news: He parred the easy par-5 opening hole.
