Anthony Kim used a disconcerting analogy about being high on crack cocaine as part of a “motivational” social media post.

The 39-year-old recently returned to professional golf, joining LIV Golf after more than a decade away.

Kim recently opened up about his time away from the sport, revealing he has undergone multiple surgeries, battled addiction and been abused by “scammers”.

He has now returned from his homeland to join the Saudi-funded splinter group. Kim is also active on social media and on Wednesday the American posted a message about his life improving.

“Hello. Does a crackhead ever let a day go by without finding a way to get high?” Kim asked her 15,000 followers.

“NO. I will know,” he added with a winking emoji. “I’m not gonna let some weirdo outdo me today. 1% better today, less goo!!!”

Kim then tagged a sponsor and included the hashtags “#girldad #gratitude #mental health.”

The American has struggled since returning to professional golf in March. In the six LIV tournaments he has played, Kim’s best finish was 46th. He has only shot under par four times in that span.

Many golf fans were taken aback by his message: “A bit weird, isn’t it?” wrote one. But others saw the funny side of the message. “Elite morning motivation from AK,” said one supporter.

“You are a breath of fresh air when golf needs it most! You don’t hide from your past, but you learn from it,” wrote another.
