SAN ANTONIO — Michael Kim wrapped up his week at the Valero Texas Open and didn’t waste a second getting to Augusta.
Kim documented the journey in real time on X, turning what’s usually a quiet travel day into a behind-the-scenes sprint to Augusta National Golf Club.
The plan was simple: finish in Texas, get out fast, and make it to Augusta before the gates closed.
Execution? Surprisingly smooth.
Kim shared that a black car service — in vans — handled the drive, cutting through the usual Masters-week logistics and delivering players straight to Augusta National right at the entrance gates Sunday night.
No chaos. No delays. Just a straight shot from one tournament to the next — which, during Masters week, is about as rare as a stress-free Sunday back nine.
The quick turnaround highlights the reality for players on the bubble: one week you’re grinding in San Antonio, the next you’re pulling into the most exclusive driveway in golf.
For Kim, the transition wasn’t just efficient — it was on brand.
Play, post, travel, repeat.
And just like that, Masters week officially began — somewhere between a Texas scorecard and a perfectly timed arrival at Augusta’s front gate.
