Si Woo Kim shot a 4-over-par 36-39=75 at the open qualifier of this week's Tampa Bay Championship at Fox Hollow Golf Club in New Port Richey, Fla., eight strokes too high to join the playoff for the final two spots into the tournament proper.
Kim called it quits in Puerto Rico after one round last week so it's promising that he was able to make the trip and play 18 holes on Monday even if it resulted in two birdies, four bogeys and a double. He doesn't become a PGA TOUR member until he turns 18 on June 28, but we'll continue to monitor his progress elsewhere until he does. Mar 12 - 11:21 AM

Si Woo Kim withdrew following his opening round of the Puerto Rico Open with a back injury.

He signed for a 7-over-par 37-42=79 before calling it a week in Puerto Rico. It's a disappointing conclusion given he's been sitting on a valuable sponsor exemption into the event for months. The 2012 Q School grad won't be eligible for PGA TOUR membership until his 18th birthday on June 28.

Si Woo Kim is listed in the published field of next week's AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.

Kim is a Q School graduate but he won't be eligible to accept membership until his 18th birthday on June 28. Therefore, any earnings and FedExCup points he gathers before then will be unofficial. His appearance at Pebble Beach is a bit of a surprise since the only news involving playing opportunities includes a sponsor exemption into the Puerto Rico Open on March 7-10.

Si Woo Kim closed out the final stage of Q School with a 4-under-par 68 at PGA West's Stadium Course to earn a PGA TOUR card in 2013.

The South Korean climbed from outside the top-25 bubble (at T30) to finish T20 at 18-under 414. He was all over the headlines throughout the six-round event because he's only 17 years old. PGA TOUR members must be 18, an age Kim won't reach until June 25. As a result, the 2013 rookie will be treated as a non-member until then, but with several exceptions. His earnings and FedExCup points will be unofficial until his birthday. More importantly, because his earnings are unofficial, as of right now, any prize money banked before his birthday will not contribute to his total used in the graduate reshuffle.
