SAD REPORT:Tom Kim’s season comes to brutal end with stunning ejection….. FULL DETAILS

Tom Kim stood on the 16th tee six under for the week at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, but more importantly, 46th in the FedEx Cup standings.

Kim was far off winning this week’s event — that eventually went to Hideki Matsuyama — but with a reachable par-5 ahead of him, a chance to make up just a bit more ground, it was likely he’d be around next week at the BMW Championship in Colorado for the second year in a row.

Perhaps more importantly, he’d also be exempt into all eight of the PGA Tour’s Signature Events, ever crucial these days, if he could keep it together to remain in the top 50 over the last three holes.

But that’s not how it went.
