Tiger out, Kim in.

Last week we brought you the story of the journeyman pro's bidding to take home the winners cheque in the absence of Tiger Woods. It seems they will have to keep plodding along, as in the absence of one sensation, an emerging one claimed the spotlight. 23 year old Antony Kim claimed his second tour title of the year at the AT&T National on Sunday with a final round 65, becoming the first American under the age of 25 to win two PGA Tour events in the same year since the great man himself. Kim finished with a bogey free round to end on 12 under. He has attributed his success down to a change in attitude. "My preperation and work ethic couldn't have gotten any worse" he said. " So it had to get better". Sweeden's Freddie Jacobsen came home in 30 shots to finish with a 65, claiming second place and a spot in the Open at Birkdale, which begins on the 17th July.
