Michael Kim is one of the most vocal players in the professional game.
He is obviously very charming and polite on the golf course, but he takes on a completely different persona online.
The 32-year-old often shares his unfiltered views on the current state of the professional game on his X account.
And Michael Kim took to his social media on Wednesday to share his opinion on the golf ball rollback.
The USGA hierarchy spoke with the media on Wednesday afternoon at Shinnecock Hills ahead of the US Open.
Mike Whan and John Bodenhamer outlined how they need to look further into whether the golf ball rollback is actually the correct move for the professional game.
Michael Kim proposes rule change after USGA’s golf ball rollback announcement
On Tuesday, Kim gave fans a detailed rundown of how Shinnecock Hills will play this week at the US Open.
And then on Wednesday, he responded to the USGA announcing that they have pushed back the implementation of the golf ball rollback until 2030.
“If they truly want “shotmaking” to be more important, then going to 10 clubs will make that happen instantly,“ Kim said.
“I think the USGA want less bomb and gouge, yet the rollback will only make driver and distance even MORE important.“
10-club rule would make for incredibly exciting golf
That is a seriously good suggestion from Michael Kim.
Can you imagine the best golfers in the world being forced to get creative with only 10 clubs in their bags?
It would be so exciting to watch.
We would find out very quickly who the most talented golfers are as well.
One thing’s for sure, Michael Kim’s suggestion is far better than the USGA’s current plan to roll back the golf ball.
