Anthony Kim once again opened up about his past struggles in an Instagram post he shared on July 3. The LIV Golf player shared how addiction, injuries, and poor decisions took over his life after his early PGA Tour success.

“I get thousands of messages every week from people either struggling or newly sober & that is wat my purpose is besides taking care of my family,” Kim wrote, urging people to visit his website and speak out.

Kim acknowledged the damage his actions caused before stepping away from the sport.

“YES I f***ed up opportunities, relationships & hurt people I cared about by my selfishness but being called DAD has changed my perspective on everything. Realizing that if my daughter 1 day sees I came back 2 life from the depths of hell & did the best I could I will look back at my life as a success.”

From 2008 to 2010, Anthony Kim was one of the top names in golf. He won three PGA Tour titles and played in the Ryder Cup and the Presidents Cup. He reached No. 6 in the Official World Golf Rankings before injuries derailed his career.

In 2012, Kim withdrew from the Wells Fargo Championship and later had surgery on his left Achilles. He never played on the PGA Tour again. Kim returned to professional golf in 2024 by joining the Saudi PIF-backed LIV Golf League, ending a 12-year break.
