LIV Golf’s Kim posts bizarre motivational message about ‘crackheads’

Anthony Kim used a baffling analogy about getting high on crack cocaine as part of a ‘motivational’ message on social media.

The 39-year-old recently returned to professional golf, joining LIV Golf after more than a decade away.

Kim recently opened up on his time away from the sport, revealing he had multiple surgeries, battled addiction and was taken advantage of by ‘scam artists’.

He has now returned from the wilderness to join the Saudi-funded breakaway. Kim is active on social media, too, and on Wednesday the American posted a message about self-improvement.

‘Good morning. Does a crackhead ever let a day go by (without) finding a way to get high?’ Kim asked his 15,000 followers.

‘NO. I would know’, he added with a wink-face emoji. ‘(I’m) not gonna let a crakhead  (sic) outwork me today. 1% better today lessssgoo!!!’

Kim then tagged a sponsor and included the hashtags ‘#girldad #gratitude #mental health’.

The American has struggled since his return to professional golf in March. In the six LIV events he has completed, Kim has a highest finish of 46th. He has shot under par only four times in that time.

Many golf fans were left baffled by his message – ‘A little weird no?’ one wrote. But others saw the funny side. ‘Elite morning motivation courtesy of AK,’ one supporter said. 

‘You’re a breath of fresh air when Golf needs it most! You’re not hiding from your past but learning from it,’ another wrote.
