The 2024 Genesis Open has been quite a rollercoaster ride so far. From Tiger Woods withdrawing to Jordan Spieth getting disqualified, the tournament has seen its fair share of drama. However, things got tight for PGA Tour star Tom Kim, when he almost missed his tee time.

Tom Kim made the cut, and going into the final round of the Genesis Open was sitting at T34. However, he almost did not see the final round through, as he was not near the tee during his tee off time. As people were looking for him, Tom Kim came running in to take his shot.

The announcer was heard commenting as Kim scurried to take his spot:

“Kim is hustling, I mean, high-tailing it to the first tee because his tee time is just moments away."

Thankfully, Kim made the tee on time and will not get disqualified. However, he is having a tough time so far, as he sits at +1 after 10 holes of Round 4.
