In the 2024 Travelers Championship, after the first round, Tom Kim shared that his birthday wish was to play a good round of golf. He celebrated his birthday by achieving just that, scoring 5-under par. Despite missing a couple of 10-foot putts early on, including an opportunity for an eagle, he bounced back with three consecutive birdies on holes 8, 9, and 10. When reflecting on the round, he played down the idea of a momentum shift, stating that his success was due to sticking with his game plan and executing well on a hot day.
“I wouldn’t say it was a momentum shift,” Tom explained. “I had some difficult putts early on but stayed focused on my game plan and played well.”
