When Tom Kim won for the third time on the PGA Tour in October 2023, capturing the Shriners Children's Open for the second straight year, many fans assumed the floodgates would open for the young phenom.

But Kim hadn't been back in the winner's circle since that victory.

Until Sunday.

The 24-year-old South Korean closed with a sparkling 64, tied for low round of the day, in the final round of the Genesis Scottish Open for his first PGA Tour victory in nearly three years.

Kim had a strong week at the Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland, opening with a five-under 65 in round one before firing a 66 in round two to share the lead at the halfway point of the tournament with Rory McIlroy and Jordan Smith.

However, McIlroy and Smith struggled in the fog-delayed third round (73 and 72, respectively) while Kim kept the momentum rolling with another under-par round (68). The weekend schedule was complicated by fog delays, with third-round play spilling into Sunday morning before the final round began.

Kim trailed Matt Fitzpatrick by one shot heading into round four, but the 24-year-old quickly made up the difference with birdies on three of his first seven holes.
