Presidents Cup star branded 'brash' for ultimate power move leaving Sky pundit laughing
Si Woo Kim emulated Tiger Woods by pulling off the ultimate power move.
Si Woo Kim prompted fits of laughter in the Sky Sports studio after pulling off a power move at the Presidents Cup. Team USA and the International Team were deadlocked at 5-5 heading into day three, with the morning four-balls determining who would be leading ahead of the afternoon foursomes.
The first two matches went the way of Team USA before Si Woo Kim and Tom Kim secured a 4-3 win over Keegan Bradley and Wyndham Clark. On the final hole, there was an opportunity for Si Woo Kim to claim the International Team's first point of the day.
Si Woo Kim was the only player with a chance of making a birdie, with the other three only able to secure par. He made no mistake with his putt, finding the middle of the cup with a perfect attempt from 17 feet.

After rolling in a birdie putt on the seventh green, Kim appeared to rile Scheffler by screaming: "Let's go!" as he celebrated his successful attempt. Moments later, Scheffler halved the hole with a similar putt before responding to his rival, asking: "What was that?"
On the eight hole, Kim celebrated wildly after holing an even longer birdie putt. He then headed to the ninth tee before Scheffler had finished putting.
Paul McGinley, who captained Team Europe to Ryder Cup glory in 2014, was not impressed with Tom Kim's behaviour and said: "That's bordering on bad behaviour there. That's disrespectful in my opinion.
"I know it's competitive out there but it certainly shows you there's an underlying edge here."
