    Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim have once again taken to social media to trade barbs in the latest chapter of their ongoing feud, igniting a firestorm of controversy within the golf community.

    The spat began when Anthony Kim, during a recent appearance on the “Country Club Adjacent” podcast, criticized Brandel Chamblee’s commentary and questioned his credibility. Chamblee, never one to back down, responded with a scathing post on X (formerly Twitter), further fueling the animosity between the two.

    The feud between Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim is not new. It dates back to Kim’s decision to join the Saudi-backed LIV Golf, a move that Chamblee, a staunch critic of the league, has repeatedly condemned.

    Over the past few months, their exchanges have grown increasingly personal and vitriolic, capturing the attention of golf fans and media alike.

    The Latest Brandel Chamblee vs. Anthony Kim Feud

    The latest round of hostilities began when Anthony Kim appeared on the “Country Club Adjacent” podcast, hosted by comedians Aristotle Georgeson, Jake Adams, Griff Pippin, and Mark Smalls. During the episode, Anthony Kim did not hold back in his criticism of Brandel Chamblee, particularly targeting his commentary on the Golf Channel.

    “People like Chamblee are what’s wrong with golf,” Kim said. “He talks about stuff he knows nothing about. How the f***k would you know?”

    “Here’s David Duval,” he added, “who was No. 1 in the world and played on multiple Ryder Cup teams, has all these sorts of records, won a million times — you’re over-talking him about what it’s like and what they’re feeling?”

    “If we were talking about, like, what it’s like to drive to a Korn Ferry event and miss the cut, we would call you, Brandel. But we don’t do that.”

    Anthony Kim’s comments quickly went viral, drawing both support and criticism from the golf community. Many fans appreciated his candidness, while others felt he had crossed a line.

    Brandel Chamblee, known for his outspoken nature, did not take Kim’s comments lightly. In a midnight post on X, Chamblee fired back with a lengthy and pointed response.

    “Less his banal drivel gets distorted into relevancy and just for context, I played the tour for about a decade longer than @AnthonyKim_Golf and had more top tens than he did in his career,” Chamblee wrote.

    “And while I understand his failures and sympathize with them, his absurd computations seem oblivious to the fact that he was willing to trade his talent for the convenience of insurance payments and then willing to betray those payments for the convenience of a dictatorial murderer who would pay him to help hide his atrocities.”

    “I wish Anthony well, but let’s not pretend he knows north from south or disability payments from obfuscation payments or, for that matter, that he has ever heard of Jamal Khashoggi.”

    Brandel Chamblee’s response was as explosive as it was detailed, touching on Kim’s departure from the PGA Tour, his insurance settlement, and his decision to join LIV Golf. The reference to Jamal Khashoggi, a journalist murdered by agents of the Saudi government, added a particularly incendiary element to the post.

    The animosity between Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim can be traced back to Kim’s decision to join LIV Golf earlier this year. Chamblee, a long-time critic of the Saudi-backed league, has been vocal in his disapproval of players who choose to join, often citing ethical concerns related to Saudi Arabia’s human rights record.

    Kim, who had been out of professional golf for over a decade due to injuries, made a high-profile return by joining LIV Golf. His decision was met with mixed reactions, with some fans excited to see him back in action and others critical of his choice to align with the controversial league.

    The feud first erupted publicly in May when Brandel Chamblee criticized the PGA Tour and LIV Golf for considering a potential deal. Kim responded with a scathing tweet, calling Chamblee a “p**sy” and accusing him of hypocrisy. Chamblee, in turn, accused Kim of trading his talent for insurance payments and later betraying those payments by joining LIV Golf.

    The repercussions

    The latest exchange between Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim has once again caused a rift in the golf community. On social media, fans and commentators have taken sides. Some are defending Kim’s right to speak his mind, while others are supporting Chamblee’s critique of LIV Golf and its players.

    One fan on X commented, “Anthony Kim is right. Chamblee talks a lot but doesn’t know what it’s like to be at the top. Kim’s just calling it like it is.”

    Another fan, however, sided with Chamblee, saying, “Brandel Chamblee is spot on. Kim took the money and ran, and now he’s trying to act like he’s above criticism. It’s pathetic.”

    The feud has also reignited discussions about the broader implications of LIV Golf and its impact on the sport. Critics argue that the league’s significant financial backing from Saudi Arabia raises ethical concerns, while supporters believe it offers a fresh and exciting alternative to traditional golf tours.

    The feud between Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim shows no signs of abating, with both sides firmly entrenched in their positions. As the golf world continues to grapple with the implications of LIV Golf, the exchanges between Chamblee and Kim serve as a microcosm of the larger debate.

    For now, fans can only watch and wait to see how this war of words will evolve and what impact it will have on the sport. One thing is certain: the feud between Brandel Chamblee and Anthony Kim is far from over, and it will continue to be a focal point of discussion in the golf community for the foreseeable future.
