Tom Kim showed his frustration with a sarcastic gesture behind the backs of his Team USA rivals on day three of the Presidents Cup. The 22-year-old teamed up with Si Woo Kim in the foursomes on Saturday evening to face Patrick Cantlay and Xander Schauffele.
Tensions began to rise between rival players as the International Team attempted to claw back an 8-6 deficit ahead of the final day. Kim was left visibly frustrated on the par-three seventh hole after being forced to play a shot just inches away from the cup.
After his team-mate’s birdie attempt fell short of the hole, Kim looked to Cantlay and Schauffele in the hope they would concede the following putt. They were unmoved, though, meaning that Kim had to finish the job with a simple tap-in from around three yards.
As he retrieved his ball from the cup, Cantlay and Schauffele began to walk towards the eighth tee box in preparation for the following hole. It was at this point that Kim laid down his club next to the hole, illustrating just how short the putt was.
He continued to remonstrate while following his team-mate to the next hole, refusing to let his frustrations die down.
