Anthony Kim says Las Vegas rumors were 'way exaggerated'

Anthony Kim might have to live with the "party boy" label that has been pinned to him since he started to become a name on the PGA Tour, but when things are wrong, he's going to let us know.

Sports Illustrated's Alan Shipnuck spoke with Kim after he withdrew from the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospital for Children Open after rumors were swirling that Kim had been out partying pretty hard earlier in the week before the tournament began.

The 25-year-old Kim confirmed that he had been out with some friends in Vegas, similar to any 25-year-old in Sin City, but said that a lot of the rumors, including the Tweet by DJ Exodus that Kim had bought upwards of 115 bottles in a nightclub, were over the top.
