I have hated how cruel people were towards AK, especially on Instagram. Part of it was because of the pouring-over of LIV hate, partly I think people are just bullies that like to go after people's vulnerabilities. AK has been through some shit, might have made some really bad decisions, done bad things. The man I see today, and I have a different perspective as I did not watch golf before he retired, is a man of principle and a kind, reflected and wholesome father. I wish him nothing but the best.
I agree with you but now that I’m seeing the comments I was right about his nose. It happens, no biggie. As long as he feels healthy and good now, he’s cool. It’s crazy the talent we never got to see though.
Erik, so glad you went out and did this match. After seeing all the big media interviews with AK, it is nice to see him on the course, relaxed, with an interviewer like you. Great job!
As a father, with a small bit of knowledge of Anthony's story -- he is even more inspirational after this video. What a great HUMAN. Giving my own spirit an inspiration. Thank you.
This was so awesome to watch. I've looked into Anthony's status several times since his fallout to no avail - so pumped to see him back thriving and owning his role as a father. Kudos to you for following through on the tat - its actually pretty dope!
I'm a big supporter of AK's comeback. I want Good People to do well. Is he open to criticism? Of course. All professionals are subject to scrutiny. He can handle it. GO AK!
dude followed his passion, and has not stopped pushing. i thought so many times this channel would fade off and get to like a 15-25k average viewership. it looked like it was getting shakey, but lang has kept his ship on course, and continues to bring great content
I was a huge AK fan back in the day- his energy and swag was something the Tour needed. In many ways he was ahead of his time. Glad to see him back with a new focus and clearer head.
This video was SUCH a treat man. Thank you for this. I was a fan of AK and Tiger when they were coming up. They made golf younger and relatable to a younger gen. I missed the attitude and swag AK brought to the game. It was so great to see glimpses of his old confident self and see him in a better place. Not to mention a treat to watch the golf play itself. Props for keeping to your word and getting the ink. I wish I saw AK's reaction to you getting it. Huge thumbs up.
AK is a legend. I don't know what he went through but I really admire how he carries himself. taking responsibility for his mistakes and knowing what's important to him in his life. Really cool to see
Unbelievable the amount of talent still bubbling under the surface despite having his skills diminished by time he's still miles above a decent amateur the likes of EAL. Crazy.
Best AK vid to date, and I’m really diggin the AK storylines… never heard of him before this year but now a big fan. No expectations, just want him to enjoy life, competitive golf having a profession. He’s played some surprisingly good rounds on LIV so far.
I'm people have done any research into golf know AK. Def my favorite video of all time from RGC. Love the insight to a legend I never got to actually see!
this guys swing is so pure still, I feel like if he gets enough competitive rounds in within a year he will be contending in these liv events. It just takes time he really is re learning how to play competitive golf
Erik, so appreciative for this match with AK. Deep inside it is still the "old -AK with a new twist (family value, a wife n a daughter). Give him a year, he'll be kicking everyone A$$ in LIV. Thank You for the golf match -gentleman game....hopefully many more to come, always enjoy your videos.
Great window into AK’s journey with life and golf! I for one love a “redemption” story, hope AK nothing but the best going forward. Thanks RGC for another first class look at the people who love the game and how to love the people who choose to play it! Half Set Full Send!
I love all of your content. Most underrated UA-cam golf channel by far. Always so entertaining and fun to watch AK is a boss, Love it!! Well done keep it up
Its nice to see ak at least having fun. I think for him thats all that matters. I dont care where he places as ive been where he was and just to come out and have fun is really the greatest thing. Golf brought me out of the depths
That tattoo is a hell of a story to tell. Your army of caddies seemed very nice but boy the reads were rough, especially that last one. You were hitting it flush too!
Finally sub'd after already watching some great content on this channel. AK is a major inspiration to me and millions more I'm certain. Life is not princesses and ponies, and like golf,' it's the follow through that COUNTS!
I just want to see Antony challenge for a top 10, I saw him at the British open in 2008 on the Saturday, he's a class player, so glad LIV have given him this chance
Had to pause the video and write that as a golf audience member, I 100% agree with AK that I'd rather watch the pros play a course where they play closer to par than play a million under. That's what makes the US Open my favorite contest of the year. Not like there's any more or any less amazing shots when the winner comes in at +1. Still incredible golf.
Was very fun to watch you guys together and glad you went through with the bet and got the tattoo..😂 You’ll definitely have a story behind that tattoo!
One of my favorite videos of AK was back in his prime and him and Tiger were doing an exhibition on a driving range. They were both asked the question “how far do you hit your sand wedge?” AK went first and basically said idk it depends on the day, it could be 90 yards or 120 yards. Tiger then answered the question and said 118 yards. Just showed you that there were different ways to play this game and still very super successful!
Yea AK has always been a class act from his interviews and clinics with Tiger back in the day . His talent will get him back in the game sooner than later he is a true Stick . AK make a YT channel give us somewhere to support you ,so we can show our love and maybe give you another outlet to grind on your game
Great to see AK back playing pro golf, LIV seems like the the best place for him and for us to hear his story. Hopefully he will eventually get to tell us just how many and what types of hallucinogenic drugs were consumed during his 12 years off the course 🍄😅
I think this is the only cool thing about Liv golf is AK is playing golf at a high level. He was amazing to watch and brought a new wave of golf fans to the game.
I'm no pro golfer but I played pretty descent amateur golf shooting the odd 68 69 here and there and mostly the same scores Anthony is shooting now. I also had a 5 year layoff and it took me 3 years to get back to where I was,so I think Anthony is doing great...give the dude some time!
I will gladly admit, i enjoy LIV, love the ad free coverage and shotgun foremat. Now to the issue at hand, AK openly admits he has struggled, I don’t blame him for accepting the offer from Netflix to tell his story, his family needs looking after. We can all guess rightly or wrongly what his issues were, but he suggests that he mixed in poor circles, and is now out of that environment. Everyone deserves to be given a chance, he seems determined to do good by his wife and daughter, and that’s fantastic. Still has talent, and well done to Greg Norman for giving him a start and chance. Let’s hope this story ends well, too much bad news in the world, a little good news and kindness would be nice. Good luck AK, ignore the haters, your family comes first and you are liked by so many who wont necessarily post as the haters do. This interview is a great insight to his current mindset, well done, he clearly trusted you.
Love this dude.. and every time I'm playing people tell me I look just like him.. hahah have a very similes struggle till my 2 kids came... I respect it big dog AK
SO awesome lol love that you went through with the tat and you have to admit, it’s a legendary story involving a mythical legend ❤🦄 REMATCH FOR SURE! He needs a tat that you pick out now! (I would suggest a redwood tree for northwood golf course 🌲😂)

Instagram comments are what UA-cam comments used to be.
Agree! Everyone has a life to live! Just do your best at it and where the chips fall, they will!
It’s the internet. You can’t take any of what is said to heart.. no one would say anything in person
I agree with you but now that I’m seeing the comments I was right about his nose. It happens, no biggie. As long as he feels healthy and good now, he’s cool. It’s crazy the talent we never got to see though.
Agree 100%, comment sections in general are one of tje worst things to ever hit the internet
Erik, so glad you went out and did this match. After seeing all the big media interviews with AK, it is nice to see him on the course, relaxed, with an interviewer like you. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it!
100% seeing Pro’s struggle to break par is so much more entertaining than seeing them breeze around a course shooting 8 or 9 under
Right? One reason why majors are great and tourneys where the winner shoots 28 under par are boring as hell.
AK is very wise and seems more. At peace? With his surroundings and golf game. I love it. Love the vibes.
Even though it hasn't been the huge AK comeback we wanted, I've still enjoyed catching up with him this season.
Always been a huge AK fan, glad to see him playing again.
Guy is a legend. He was peaking when I first started playing golf so have some core memories of AK on tour.
As a father, with a small bit of knowledge of Anthony's story -- he is even more inspirational after this video. What a great HUMAN. Giving my own spirit an inspiration. Thank you.
I'm dying at the 3 caddies visual 🤣This man needs all the help he can get!
Anthony Kim is a legend at golf and even a better person 🙏❤️ great video
This was so awesome to watch. I've looked into Anthony's status several times since his fallout to no avail - so pumped to see him back thriving and owning his role as a father. Kudos to you for following through on the tat - its actually pretty dope!
I'm a big supporter of AK's comeback. I want Good People to do well. Is he open to criticism? Of course. All professionals are subject to scrutiny. He can handle it. GO AK!
dude followed his passion, and has not stopped pushing. i thought so many times this channel would fade off and get to like a 15-25k average viewership. it looked like it was getting shakey, but lang has kept his ship on course, and continues to bring great content
He is a stellar storyteller and always oozes the dos xx's beer coolest-man vibes.
I was a huge AK fan back in the day- his energy and swag was something the Tour needed. In many ways he was ahead of his time. Glad to see him back with a new focus and clearer head.
AK is back. Keep doing what you are doing enjoy it. A lot of people still love to see you playing golf.
This video was SUCH a treat man. Thank you for this. I was a fan of AK and Tiger when they were coming up. They made golf younger and relatable to a younger gen. I missed the attitude and swag AK brought to the game. It was so great to see glimpses of his old confident self and see him in a better place. Not to mention a treat to watch the golf play itself.

Hope AK comes back strong, nobody is perfect and there are trying times in your life. Love to see how humble he is, rooting for a spectacular comeback
That was awesome. Thanks Erik and RGC, and of course AK. Looking forward to this journey.
He’s my new favorite pro and the reason I’ve started to watch LIV, no doubt.
Anyone who truly loves the game of golf loves seeing and hearing AK do his thing
Thanks for this! All the respect to AK for his honesty and hopefully he keeps getting better and stays on the good path!!
AK is a legend. I don't know what he went through but I really admire how he carries himself.
taking responsibility for his mistakes and knowing what's important to him in his life. Really cool to see
Legend. The most overused word of our times.
Unbelievable the amount of talent still bubbling under the surface despite having his skills diminished by time he's still miles above a decent amateur the likes of EAL.
Crazy.
Best AK vid to date, and I’m really diggin the AK storylines… never heard of him before this year but now a big fan. No expectations, just want him to enjoy life, competitive golf having a profession. He’s played some surprisingly good rounds on LIV so far.

Lol made this comment then heard Eric basically say the same 😂 AK coming back strong! Love the swag too
this guys swing is so pure still, I feel like if he gets enough competitive rounds in within a year he will be contending in these liv events. It just takes time he really is re learning how to play competitive golf
So good to see AK return. Glad for him. Dude was a monster and seems so at peace and also dad-strong lol welcome back, AK!
AK has a perspective on life that takes an immense toll on the person while gathering it! I’m impressed by his humility and genuineness.
Feel blessed to even be able to see my childhood hero on a course again, scoring doesn’t matter. AK is a legend
I could watch a whole 10 episode miniseries with these two just golfing and AK talking.
Happy to see AK back.. happy and healthy. He was a great personality in golf
Erik, so appreciative for this match with AK. Deep inside it is still the "old -AK with a new twist (family value, a wife n a daughter). Give him a year, he'll be kicking everyone A$$ in LIV. Thank You for the golf match -gentleman game....hopefully many more to come, always enjoy your videos.
I don’t comment much, but that deserves it. AK and Erik is the energy I need in my life now. Thanks
Incredible video, love to c AK on the come up. He’s inspiring all over again for different reasons
Great window into AK’s journey with life and golf! I for one love a “redemption” story, hope AK nothing but the best going forward. Thanks RGC for another first class look at the people who love the game and how to love the people who choose to play it! Half Set Full Send!
I love all of your content. Most underrated UA-cam golf channel by far. Always so entertaining and fun to watch AK is a boss, Love it!! Well done keep it up
Thank you so much for watching!
Epic video! AK was a gem of a bloke and I aspire to Eric's ability to charm anyone.
AK comes off as a genuine person and a solid dude! Glad to see this side of him. ❤
AK seems like a good dude, down to hearth, humble. Glad to see he's doing well.
AK is beginning to open up to us and i'm here for it all!
i hope anthony gets some sponsors! excited to see his return!
Its nice to see ak at least having fun. I think for him thats all that matters. I dont care where he places as ive been where he was and just to come out and have fun is really the greatest thing. Golf brought me out of the depths
Seems like such a chill guy to play with. We’re all human and make mistakes. Seems like it’s not lost on him that he’s lucky to have a second chance.
Awesome experience for all involved! Love this content. Thanks!
man listening to Kim - i love him ! .... not a golf fan, but i love this guys story and exposition.
이 천재를 다시 보게되다니 기쁩니다. 앞으로 더 밝은 모습으로 항상 보기를 희망합니다. 👍👍👍👍
That tattoo is a hell of a story to tell. Your army of caddies seemed very nice but boy the reads were rough, especially that last one. You were hitting it flush too!
AK the Legend!
Your statement would make one believe that all 3-time PGA tour winners are legends. And clearly they aren't.
Finally sub'd after already watching some great content on this channel. AK is a major inspiration to me and millions more I'm certain. Life is not princesses and ponies, and like golf,' it's the follow through that COUNTS!
AK seems like such a good dude! Here’s hoping he can find success and happiness with LIV.
Loved seeing AK like this and low key the music in the background was kinda lit
AK is my new favorite golfer! Great video
I just want to see Antony challenge for a top 10, I saw him at the British open in 2008 on the Saturday, he's a class player, so glad LIV have given him this chance
AK is a stud, I respect him a lot!!!
Had to pause the video and write that as a golf audience member, I 100% agree with AK that I'd rather watch the pros play a course where they play closer to par than play a million under. That's what makes the US Open my favorite contest of the year.

Super cool you got to do this I have always liked AK and I have followed his whole career and I want nothing more than to see him win again!
Was very fun to watch you guys together and glad you went through with the bet and got the tattoo..😂
You’ll definitely have a story behind that tattoo!
AK hands down straight up dude 😊he is real with everyone. Keep thriving my homie 🙌🙌

Erik I've always enjoyed your content and this one especially is super cool on your end.
This was a great video, I’m glued to the screen! AK bring back the belt buckles!
I saw Anthony play at Cape Kidnappers in 2008 and 2009 in the Kiwi Golf Challenge and was blown away by his ability. Great to see him back
That was such a bad ass video! AK was just absolutely awesome! Great job Erik and actually getting the tattoo was hardcore!
Great show, thank you!
THIS is a BIG GET!
If I had to choose between going to a PGA event or LIV, it would be LIV! It seems like everyone there is having a great time!
Love the crow flight tracer at 29:00 😂
Always loved this guy. Glad to see him back in the game of golf true legend
The scorecard edits between holes were very well done 👌
Time and experiences have made AK a wiser person.
Happy for you AK go get em bro.. things will come around 👊
This video made me really like Anthony Kim. He’s a normal regular guy who’s very good at golf
Good video, makes me appreciate more the man he’s become
This is bad ass. It’s like he got out of a fucking Time Machine. When he asked about the LAB putter it was peak. Great video RGC!
Anthony Kim seems like he has turned a new page. Great to see!
Incredible video. Well done. AK is such a good dude and you guys seemed to gel well. Thanks
Loved this episode. Great storytelling.
love watching AK play golf!!
Awesome video Erik! Love the tattoo. Hope AK does well on LIV. Seems like a guy everyone should have a conversation with about staying grounded.
Nice ink….good to see Anthony back at it. Best of luck to both of you….
That smile he flashes in the preview is the closest thing I've seen to the old AK since he's come back
Great content as usual Erik. Good to see AK smile and have a good time. People are waaaay too harsh on him
EAL with his sneaky half a shot a hole shenanigans again. I’m on to you brother lol. Awesome ending!
Seems like a really genuine guy.
Great to see AK back playing pro golf, LIV seems like the the best place for him and for us to hear his story. Hopefully he will eventually get to tell us just how many and what types of hallucinogenic drugs were consumed during his 12 years off the course 🍄😅

My favourite youtube golf channel ❤from the UK.
Great times! As always
Definitely rooting for AK 💪🏽
Anthony Kim will forever and always be my favorite
Great content Erik . Great to see AK back
Man I was the biggest fan of AK. It was tiger and then AK. So glad to him back. Bring back the belt buckles!

Nice to see Erik getting this. Much better fit than one of the young'uns on the Toob would've been.
Great stuff.... & decent tatt! LOL :)
