Anthony Kim hasn’t played professional golf in 12 years. The last of his three PGA Tour wins came 13 years ago. He once beat Sergio Garcia in singles in the Ryder Cup 15 years ago and then famously walked to the next hole before being called back.

According to a social media post by LIV Golf Commissioner Greg Norman on Monday, however, Kim is likely to be in the field when LIV Golf Jeddah begins on March 1.
