PGA Tour Pro Michael S. Kim is quite active on X, providing commentary on golf with a humorous touch to his 128k followers. Fans even tag him in their queries related to golf, and Kim actively answers. Recently, something similar happened.

An online netizen named Matt Smith posted a query on X on October 9. He posted a screenshot of weather conditions on October 10 at East Lake Boulevard, Lakeland. The screenshot showed that the wind speed ranged from 39 MPH to 96 MPH throughout the day. Next, he asked a question, tagging S. Kim.

“I wonder what scores on the @PGATOUR would look like in these conditions. Could have some drivable par 5’s and some driver-3 wood par 3’s. What do you think @Mike_kim714 could you guys break 125?” the cybercitizen asked.
