Michael Kim questions Johnson Wagner recreation

Michael Kim reacted publicly after watching Johnson Wagner’s on-air attempt to replicate Brooks Koepka’s cart-path shot.

The PGA Tour golfer shared his view on social media, suggesting the outcome may not have been accidental.

“Controversial take? I’m convinced Johnson purposely hits some of these way offline for comedic effect. I doubt a 3-time winner on tour is hitting it 25 yds left of a pin off a good lie with a mid-iron.”

Kim framed his comments as a personal opinion while questioning the execution of the shot. The remark reflected skepticism over whether the miss accurately represented Wagner’s ability.

Wagner attempt sparks debate around broadcast segment

Johnson Wagner’s recreation was part of a CBS broadcast segment designed to illustrate the difficulty of Brooks Koepka’s original shot from the cart path.

The attempt quickly circulated online and became a talking point following the coverage. Michael Kim’s comments added to the wider discussion surrounding the segment and its execution.

Some fans shared frustration online over Wagner’s shot recreation, specifically as they felt the broadcast was too focused on Koepka, despite his lack of success during the outing.

Perhaps CBS will take this into consideration heading into the final day of Farmers Insurance Open tomorrow.
