On social media platform X, the 31-year-old shared his thoughts on The Players Championship 2025 in which he missed the cut. While Kim's post was detailed and included many different aspects, the highlight was his calling The Players Championship the best-run tournament.

Michael Kim wrote:

"Personally, from a player’s perspective, I think The Players is the best run tournament in the world. Everything from the gym, food, practice facility, parking, and staff, it’s all first class."

Further in the post, Michael Kim discussed other aspects of The Players Championship 2025. He mentioned that he appreciates the design of the TPC Sawgrass and labeled the par 5s on the course as 'great.'

Kim also explained the need for more tournaments to have moguls in the roughs of their course and appreciate the famous tree on No. 6. Overall, the one-time PGA Tour winner only had good things to say about The Players Championship.

However, when it comes to playing, Michael Kim's time at the TPC Sawgrass wasn't the best this year. As mentioned above, Kim missed the cut, ending a great run of form he experienced at the beginning of the 2025 season.
