Anthony Kim announced Tuesday over social media that he has been diagnosed with a blood clot.
'Long story but two weeks before (LIV Golf Riyadh) I started feeling bad and couldn't figure out what was wrong,' Kim wrote on Instagram. 'Well found out yesterday it was a blood clot in my leg.'
Kim, 39, noted that doctors have taken 'good care of me' and 'I will be fine.'
His announcement on Tuesday comes five days after he publicly celebrated two years of sobriety. He also spoke about his lengthy battle with alcohol and drugs on the PGA Tour and how he endured suicidal thoughts for nearly 20 years before turning his life around.
Kim turned pro in 2006 and recorded PGA Tour victories at the 2008 Wachovia Championship, 2008 AT&T National and 2010 Houston Open. He climbed as high as No. 6 in the world rankings in September 2008.
An Achilles injury in 2012 led to surgery, and many others followed during his 12-year absence from professional golf.
