Tom Kim one round from Asian Games gold and military exemption

Original: Tom Kim 18 holes away from gold at Asian Games and military exemption

South Korean golfer Tom Kim stands 18 holes away from winning gold at the Asian Games, a result that would earn him an exemption from South Korea's mandatory military service. Kim, a multiple PGA Tour winner, is competing for South Korea at the Games. Victory would spare him roughly two years of service, a significant career consideration for Korean athletes.

Why now: Kim is close to clinching gold, which carries the life-changing benefit of a military service exemption for South Korean athletes.
