Never A Dull Moment Around Christina Kim

Christina Kim began her golf season with a minor bus accident in Thailand, played okay in Singapore last week and missed her flight to Australia’s east coast because she got the departure time wrong.

Just another few weeks in the often wild life of Kim, American-born of Korean parents who says “I can’t be tamed.”

Kim, known for her outlandish clothing and outgoing personality, arrived at the ANZ Australian Ladies Masters a day late because she thought her overnight flight from Perth on Australia’s west coast left at 11:50 p.m. on Tuesday.

“I was pushing it a little bit as it was,” she said. She made the most of her unexpected extra night in Perth, spending it at a rock festival with musician friends, got up at 5 a.m and went to the airport.

On Feb. 19, her transportation problems took on a more dangerous turn when Kim was shaken but unhurt when the player bus crashed leaving the course near Pattaya, Thailand.

The accident involving a bus, truck and a police car happened when Kim was returning to her hotel.
