He was one of the next young talent about 10 years go and he just fell of the nap. Is he on tour still?

Got injured. Took an insurance policy that paid him major dollars. If he came back he'd have to pay it back. Therefore he took the check and is enjoying other things in life. He was spotted a few years back by a golfer at a pet store in Dallas. Hes rocking a 50k watch so, he is still doing fine.

More details

There have been a bunch of articles and speculation. I don't know that anything has been confirmed officially, though.

I think almost every golf writer/podcast has attempted to interview him with no luck.

I saw him at Nobu in Dallas the weekend of the LSU Miami game.


Hope this helps.

All I know is he partied his arse off on tour. Like out at clubs doing blow and molly until 4 AM the night before an 8 AM tee time.

I've heard this from several guys on tour. He was an animal.

Supposedly he was partying until the sun came up the night/morning before he smoked Sergio in the 2008 Ryder Cup.

Cocaine. Plus he didn’t love the game and his insurance policy was rather large from what I hear.

He wrecked a house and left the family a blank check during the New Orleans tourney.

I remember when he slaughtered Garcia at Valhalla in 2008.

I was at the PGA at Oakland Hills in 2008 with a friend that plays on tour. House that was rented was behind 15 tee and he played early on Friday and had a cookout all afternoon with caddies and some other friends. AK shows up around 8pm and all the Golf Channel people are there. He proceeds to shoot a fifth of Patron down to an inch left in the bottle. Just pouring them in a shot glass and getting after it. By 10pm he's folded up in the corner of the living room passed out. Buddy of mine called his bookie in Dallas and wanted to know who AK was head to head against the next day. Mickleson was -140 and he put $50,000 on Phil. AK shoots 74 or 75 on Saturday to Mickleson's 71 I think. It was the most impressive drinking exhibition these eyes have ever seen. That's inside knowledge that the everyday gambler doesn't get.

Wow cool story. I believe that because I have heard and read often that AK was a bid partier. He wasted a ton of talent.
