PGA Tour pro Michael Kim recently shared a take on his OWGR ranking in comparison to LIV Golf's Jon Rahm. The golfer from Korea posted his hilarious take on this matter on his official X account. Fans have now jumped in to support him.

Kim currently has around 143K followers on his X account. He regularly keeps sharing opinions, news and updates with his fans. On March 10, 2025, Michael Kim posted on his X, claiming that he is better than Rahm. The PGA Tour professional even shared an image of the Official World Golf Ranking leaderboard to prove his claims:

"I’m currently a better golfer than Jon Rahm ... OFFICIAL world golf rankings"

Although Kim's later claims indicated that it was an hilarious take, this once again reminded LIV fans of the league's frustration with the OWGR. Due to the ongoing feud between PGA Tour and the Saudi PIF-backed golf league, LIV Golfers are also excluded from World Ranking Points.

This has led numerous popular names like Rahm, Brooks Koepka and Joaquin Niemann to lose their top ranks in the OWGR after joining LIV Golf. However, fans of Michael Kim praised the golfer for his recent performances in the PGA Tour in the comment section.

"You’ve been playing some awesome golf. Great to see.", someone praised Kim.
