4x PGAT winner to replace Kevin Na in rebranded Ironheads GC with potential LIV Golf deal: Reports

There have been reports circulating around the PGA Tour pro, Si Woo Kim, joining LIV Golf. Flushing It has shared a post on X (formerly Twitter), in which they have mentioned that the South Korean golfer is in late-stage negotiations to join Iron Heads GC.

He is likely to replace Kevin Na on the team. Not only that, but sources also indicated that Kim would be bringing his "own players" to the team. Flushing It shared a post with a long caption, which says:

"Si Woo Kim’s potential deal with LIV Golf would be to take equity in the rebranded Becko East GC (Ironheads GC) stripping Kevin Na of his captaincy. Sources indicate the hold up is due to Si Woo wanting to bring in his own players, with only Danny Lee’s position being secure for the 2026 season out of the current line up.

"I want to make this very clear, no deal has been agreed yet, but this is a major target for LIV Golf that they’ve been chasing since at least September. Si Woo is in a position of strength in the negotiations and his team knows it."

Meanwhile, Si Woo Kim had an amazing season playing on the PGA Tour. This season on the Tour, he played in 30 tournaments and made the cut in 22 of them. He recorded three finishes in the top 10.

He last played at The RSM Classic and carded the four rounds of 65, 67, 65, and 66 to settle in the T4 position.

Not only him, but there have been rumors of Sungjae Im joining LIV Golf as well.
