You can't tell us you are UTG without mentioning that it is 6-handed. It's not enough information. Actually number of players at the table hardly matters. We need to know that you are in MP/LJ. I am never open-folding this in MP.
I often open KQo UTG full-ring also, but that is table dependent and most would consider it loose. It might be a leak.

Because we don't get very much value. All of villain's Kx is better than ours because K9- doesn't often open UTG. 99- is not calling. There aren't very many Ts in an UTG range. We can get raised by the hands you are worried about catching up. We are only denying villain at most around 15% equity. We have a hand that can call another bet on the river or have a much clearer value bet if villain checks again.
