K.T Kim chased his opening 67 at the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational with another in his second round to reach the midpoint in 6-under 134, five strokes off the 36-hole clubhouse lead.
Unlike his opener, Kim went bogey-free 32-35 in today's loop of Firestone. He split just six (of 14) fairways but landed 15 greens and rolled in three birdies, all of which dropping from beyond 10 feet. The most notable of the set measured 15'4" at the 13th hole and 23 feet at No. 17. Fri, Aug 3, 2012 05:23:00 PM

K.T. Kim carded a 3-under-par 32-35=67 in his opening round of the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational, finishing with a share of the clubhouse lead.

Kim was the fourth to sign for a 67 today. He's been a non-factor all year in the world's biggest events, so this is a welcome surprise for his fantasy owners. The South Korean birdied four of his first seven holes, including conversions of 12'3" and 22'9" at the first and seventh holes, respectively. He added a par save from 20'4" at No. 8 to maintain momentum. A botched up-and-down at the par-4 18th resulted in a bogey and cost him the outright lead.

Kyung-Tae Kim is scheduled to play in the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship.

While Kim has a strong record across the globe, the Korean's game hasn't traveled consistently well to the United States. He did have a nice run in the summer of 2011 with a tie for sixth at the WGC-Bridgestone and a tie for fourth at the Wyndham. In his last two tournaments, he bowed out in the first round of the Match Play and missed the cut at last week's Honda.

Kyung-tae Kim survived his Sunday singles match with Webb Simpson 1-up at the Presidents Cup.

Casual golf fans getting their first look at the 25-year-old South Korean are going to remember just how solid he was with the flatstick late in this competition. After showcasing his talent in a victroy in four-ball on Saturday, Kim pressed the repeat button today. After Simpson won the 15th and 16th holes to square the match, Kim drilled home a 10-footer for birdie and a win at the 17th to regain the lead. At the last, both golfers missed 30-foot birdie attempts, but Kim needed a par save of 5'11" to secure the point for the Internationals. U.S. still leads, however, 14-12.

K.T. Kim and Y.E. Yang pipped Tiger Woods and Dustin Johnson 1-up in Saturday four-ball in March 19 of the Presidents Cup.

A veritable upset given that the South Koreans were an aggregate 0-4-0 on the week; both sat in this morning's foursomes. And they were never down in the match. Yang opened with a nine-foot conversion for birdie and a win at the first hole. The next eight were halved before Woods curled in a 34-footer for birdie at the 10th to even it up. Yang promptly sunk a 10-footer for birdie to regain the lead at the 11th. Woods again brought the match to all square with an 11-foot birdie at 12. Two more halves preceded Kim's unlikely 28-foot birdie bomb at the par-5 15th for a 1-up lead. Dormie at the last, neither Woods nor DJ could convert for birdie, but Kim needed to drop his 5'7" attempt for par for the full point. The Internationals are now 2-0-0 in four-ball today but they still trail the U.S. 11-8 on the scoreboard.

Kyung-Tae Kim carded a 5-under-par 34-31=65 in his third round of the Wyndham Championship, and shares the early 54-hole clubhouse lead with Brendon de Jonge at 9-under 201.

Kim entered the week 20th in the world ranking, fourth-highest of the 156 in the field in Greensboro. He recently posted a T6 at Firestone and sits fifth in points to qualify for the Internationals in the President's Cup. Heady stuff for the 25-year-old from Seoul, South Korea. Kim buried seven birdies at Sedgefield today, including conversions of 18'5" and 23'8" at the first and 11th holes, respectively. He received a foreign exemption to tee it up this week, but is ineligible for the FedExCup Playoffs as a non-member.

Kyung-Tae Kim shot a 2-under-par 35-34=69 in his opening round of the U.S. Open, finishing one stroke back of Y.E. Yang's clubhouse lead.

The 25-year-old South Korean is making his debut in the U.S. Open this week. He wasted no time in earning some attention with four birdies against only two bogeys at Congressional today. Overall, he split seven (of 14) fairways and hit 11 greens, and required just 26 putts.
