PGA Tour pro triggers golf fans with 'ridiculous' trousers: "WTH is he wearing?"
PGA Tour pro Tom Kim turned heads with a bold outfit choice during the first round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Memphis.
Tom Kim turned heads during the first round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship on the PGA Tour.
Kim is competing in the first leg of the playoffs and opted for a striking pair of trousers for the first 18 holes at TPC Memphis.
There was nothing bold about the choice of colour. There was, however, something to be said about their length.
Perhaps Kim will defend them vehemently, given that he went low in the opening round and was amongst the early leaders.
That said, Golf Twitter X was absolutely against them.

What's up with Tom Kim's pants?
If that is the new men's golf fashion I'm finished. Joggers are bad enough but peddle pushers.— Michael Remington (@Michael98824380) August 10, 2023

Tom Kim doesn’t half like a bit of attention. Not sure it’s all accidental. Super golfer though, that’s for sure.
