[Ed. 4/10/14 – On the morning of the first round of The Masters, a report that takes a look back at April 2011–when Michigan senior Lion Kim played at Augusta. Scorecard via via mgoblue.com]
A few shots of Michigan senior Lion Kim from today from Wednesday’s practice round at The Masters. He joined PGA great KJ Choi and he overheard the occasional shout of “Go Blue!” from the patrons.
From the par 3 12th on Amen Corner

Getting some advice from KJ Choi
This is the closest Lion got to Tiger (Woods left in the gray pull-over – Lion to the right in the white visor)
On the 16th it’s tradition to try to skull/skip a shot across the pond.
There was mucho representation of Michigan around the course. Here, Lion’s mom and brother watch the action.

Nice pics!!!!….what are there odds on him making the cut?…….odds on being top amatuer?

Go Blue! If only I could be there. I’d bring an ‘M Club Supports You’ banner for him.
No way would Lion be caught dead in a green jacket, no matter what the celebration. The caddy outfit is embarrassing enough.

Any one know how i can purchase the Michigan shirt the Lion is wearing with the faded shoulders and back? I can’t find it at Mo’s or Mden

I’m a bit confused: Are those photos from this year’s Masters or from 2011?
