More than a month after they were lost on an American Airlines flight, the clubs I.K. Kim used to win last year’s Ricoh Women’s British Open turned up on the sale rack of a California sporting goods store.
Kim’s clubs became lost in late January when she flew from Miami to San Diego, with the airline suggesting she simply rent a new set. A few weeks later, Kim shot a “What’s in the bag” television segment which according to a Golfweek report caught the eye of three good samaritans in the San Diego area.
The three men recognized Kim’s clubs for sale at a local Play It Again Sports, with the major winner’s tools listed at $60 each. The store even had Kim’s tour bag, complete with her LPGA player badge. Kim filmed the reunion with her bag – containing wedges and a few hybrids, minus the head covers – at the Carlsbad police station:
What’s in my bag now?! They were selling at Play it again … only $60 each in San Diego. Jack, Jeff, Paul watched my video with @alisonwhitaker1 in Singapore and found my remaining clubs and brought it back to me @lpga_tour this week at Aviara!! Btw… Where is the head covers? They might sell separately?Never mind.
Kim was back in southern California this week for the Kia Classic, where she’ll begin play Thursday morning at Aviara Golf Club in Carlsbad.
