Michael Kim supports controversial golf rules about divots and slow play

Michael Kim addressed two controversial golf rules during a Q&A on X. He defended the fairway divot rule, stating that players should not expect a perfect lie just for hitting the fairway. On the issue of slow play, which often leads to rounds exceeding five hours, he remarked that it relates more to the number of players on the course than to individual pace. Kim suggested that no simple solutions exist for speeding up gameplay, even as fans continue to express frustration over lengthy rounds.
