LIV Golf’s Anthony Kim targets Brandel Chamblee and the Presidents Cup in single post, slams team selection process
LIV Golf professional Anthony Kim has reignited his war of words with Brandel Chamblee. Since Kim made his return to professional golf by joining the Saudi-backed LIV Golf, he and Chamblee, who is a critic of LIV Golf, have taken potshots at each other.
On September 26th, Thursday, Kim shared a post on X (formerly Twitter) in which he made barbed comments aimed at Brandel Chamblee and the Presidents Cup. The 4-time PGA Tour winner was critical of the selection process for the Presidents Cup, which does not permit the selection of LIV Golf professionals. He used the words “ramble shamlee,” similar to his earlier words when addressing the analyst.Sharing a photo of himself, Kim wrote:
“Congrats to all the team members of the #PresidentsCup. Would be even better w the @livgolf_league players that deserve to be there as well🤷♂️ but still a special event & accomplishment ask ramble shamlee he can walk u thru wat u will be feeling
The feud between Kim and Chamblee began when Kim called out the Golf Channel analyst for what the golfer saw as hypocrisy. While Chamblee responded to the American at that time, he is yet to issue an official response to Kim’s new statement.
What happened between Anthony Kim and Brandon Chamblee in May?
Back in May, Anthony Kim began this feud when he targeted Brandon Chamblee via a post on X. Kim’s tweet came after Chamblee, a LIV Golf critic, advocated that a merger between the PGA Tour and the PIF “is the better end of the bargain.”

After these comments, Kim reposted one; he accused the Golf Channel analyst of being a ‘hypocrite.’ This 39 years golfer employed hard vocal language in his post. He wrote:
Why don’t you tell them Ramble Chamblee @chambleebrandel ur such a p***y for beating on ur chest and then telling everyone never retreat & then you RETREAT. Honestly, anyone with a set of functioning eyes and a decent knack for reading hint of disdain from most golf world to this talentless fool. Are u still gonna cover golf if @livgolf_league is in it?
Chamblee replied to this with a post that read, ‘@Kim, everything you’ve said about me is wrong.’ He was also offended by the choice of words Kim, opted to use in the tweet. He wrote,
“This one is almost as off base as a lot of Mickelson’s tee shots and it is ironically two tweets after you were soliciting for advice on how to raise your daughter that you would refer to someone as female body part in an effort to demean them.” At the same time, I was not offered disability for my pithy takes.”
The golf analyst agreed saying he agreed with the idea of a merge as Saudi Arabia won’t stop funding the game and will still be a ‘threat’ and ‘ dilute ‘ the product of the PGA Tour.
