“DM Me”: Michael Kim rushes to help NFL Star Sauce Gardner’s plea for help from golfers

Michael Kim is one of the most active golfers on social media, especially X. He interacts, shares his thoughts and updates about his life and game regularly without any hesitation.

Recently, he rushed to help NFL star Sauce Gardner, who was seeking guidance for his golf game. Gardner asked golfers on X why he is not able to take divots with his irons even when he tries:

"For my golfers out there, can somebody explain to me why I don't take divots with my irons when I try to."

Michael Kim replied to this tweet and asked him to direct message his swing video so that he could take a look at his swing and guide him.

"DM me your swing and I can take a look Sauce," he wrote on X.

Sauce Gardner is new to the game of golf as he picked up the golf club for the first time earlier last year. He played his first 18-hole game in June 2024 and carded 90, which is an incredible feat as most players take months or years to reach this score, which Sauce managed to reach in just a couple of weeks.

Now, with Michael Kim offering to assist him and help him with his divots, we can expect his game to be stronger and crisper than ever.

"Yeah, I mean, you know, the funny thing is, it's like I haven't, I don't feel -- I've played a lot of really good golf recently, but I don't feel incredibly much more confident than I did at like Waste Management. But I would say the doubts don't creep in as much, or I'm able to kind of let 'em go by easier," Kim said (via ASAP Sports).

In 9 events played so far, he has missed 3 cuts and registered 3 top-10 finishes, including one runner-up finish. Kim has made $2,677,869 as official money on the PGA Tour this season so far.
