Anthony Kim was once one of the world's most exciting, talented and recognisable young golfers.
Between 2006 and 2012, he won multiple times on the PGA Tour, inspired the US to Ryder Cup glory, reached sixth on the world rankings, and broke records at Augusta National.
Then he walked away without explanation.
For 12 years, nobody knew where he was. Sightings of him were few and far between. He as good as vanished until the LIV Golf League persuaded him to return this year.
Where has he been all this time? What convinced him to end his exile? And more to the point, what comes next?
AK answers those questions on this week's episode of The bunkered Podcast - his FIRST major one-on-one chat on this side of the pond.
Elsewhere, Michael and Bryce discuss Lydia Ko completing the Olympics ‘medal slam’, weigh in on the fuss caused by Trump Turnberry’s £1,000 green fee, and discuss the three golf-related items they would want with them if they were stranded on a desert island.
It’s another bumper episode.

Well, well, well. Who saw that coming! The men’s Olympic golf competition was right up there with the very best tournaments staged all year.
Michael and Alex reflect on an epic week at Le Golf National.
Does the format work? Would it really be better with amateurs? Could this event, in time, become as big as a major?
Plus, how good is Scottie Scheffler? What now for Tommy Fleetwood? And was Jon Rahm’s collapse really one of the “biggest chokes of the year”?
Michael also reflects on his recent visit to the LIV UK event at JCB Golf & Country Club, whilst Alex lives up to his reputation as bunkered’s resident Bradley Walsh.
