“My ride to the course this week”

Michael Kim shares his experience of playing at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship
Michael Kim shared a long post on his X (formerly Twitter) account after the 2025 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. He opened up about his experience of playing in the event and said that he “really enjoyed” his time in the city. Moreover, he talked about the Grand Mosque and also about the golf course. He wrote:
“Thoughts from Abu Dhabi: -First time being in Abu Dhabi, and I really enjoyed my time here. Did some touristy stuff like checking out the Grand mosque. One of the coolest buildings I’ve been to. Also, teamlab phenomena was a TRIP haha. -Yas links was a cool course. It’s in phenomenal shape, which I hear it’s in great shape all yr round. I’ve never seen paspalum this tight and smooth anywhere else.
“Golf was… up and down. Played well the first day but the rest of the days were really inconsistent, especially with my irons. I don’t remember the last time I struggled this badly with my irons. I keep pull drawing them. I started to figure it out more on Sunday so I have an idea of what I need to do heading into Dubai. I am however really pleased with my putting.

I’ve really leaned into aimpoint from 8ft out and I haven’t felt this good about my putting in ages. I’m telling you guys, check out my thread on aimpoint. It can really help your game and play just as fast if not faster. -Rode in a bunch of autonomous Uber rides here. Mostly very solid. Tesla still has the best autonomous system I think. -Dubai will be my very last solo tournament for the yr! Let’s end it the right way.
It, however, did not end well for Michael Kim in Abu Dhabi. He started the campaign with an opening round of 65 and then played the next three rounds of 72, 68, and 69 to settle in a tie for 32nd place.
He won the FedEx Open de France earlier this year and was in T9 at the DP World India Championship. On the PGA Tour, some of his best finishes are T2 at the WM Phoenix Open, fourth at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and tenth at the BMW Championship.
