      He's clear destroyed his nose internally, unfortunately he is an addictive personality, yet as much as that has caused him major issues with gambling and drug abuse, I'm sincerely hoping it will be his saviour, the help that the Liv Golf will give him to infinite support to bring his life and game up to the high standard, that will be addictive to him, playing great golf and a living clean lifestyle will exactly what he needs. I sincerely hope so anyway.

    Agree with you 💯 AK was a breathe of fresh air because he was one of the boys. Let’s be real here. The PGA is too dry. Enters AK, nice kid, gifted golfer and was unapologetic with his style. He played aggressive, shanks it in the woods then goes for it and back in play. Also head you on the edge of your seat. He was relatable on how he carried himself but had god given talent. I’m totally rooting for AK.

He's been through some stuff, obviously, but it looks like he's got his priorities straight and I'll be rooting for him. This is the first time I've paid attention to a LIV tournament.

    I feel everyone writing him off hasn't thought that he could of been fine tuning his game for the past 5 years or so on a simulater hidden away from the public and comes out and kicks butt. I know here's to hoping but would be awesome to see him up top of the pilon at the end of the weekend. I knee he would make a return to golf sooner or later. Liv gave him that chance. As long as he is happy it doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks.

  • @Demolego1980
    @Demolego1980 Před 3 měsíci

    Lot of people think that a 76 in competitive golf is the same 76 they shoot at their local course off the white tees. Pro competitive golf
    Is a hard grind. Luckily his short seems to be in good order. Seems he doesn’t have that confidence yet to really swing through ball. Could see he had some quick pull swings when he saw trouble on the right when hitting his drive. I think he showed a bit of improvement after that horror bogey stretch which has Traci led him both days so far. Actually played and guided it out over his last 11 holes. LIV is the perfect platform for him to return, play himself in and then see where he goes from that. Any sport you been away for for a period of time is totally hard. You see people make comebacks and it’s like when they used to be able to put the foot down to accelerate there’s nothing under the gas pedal at the moment. Think he might shoot under par at hong Kong though. Go AK

      Yep! I also think his daughter was a big motivating factor. 12 years away and making a comeback at the highest level after going thru “something dark” … takes a lot of guts to attempt. Is a great example for his daughter to look up to - fear nothing and never stop pursuing what you love.

    All the majors should disinvite all LIV golfers. LIV is dreadful rubbish. PGA tour significantly weakened.

The more money they earn, the less cuts they face, the lower the stakes.
