The bond between Tom Kim and Sungjae Im seems to have grown even closer since the Presidents Cup and this was clear at the ZOZO Championship.

The International team may have come up short at the Presidents Cup, but the stock of some of their players has increased tenfold.

Two of these players who have grown both in popularity and stature are Tom Kim and Sungjae Im who are both teeing it up at the ZOZO Championship this week.

Kim broke all sorts of records last week by winning the Shriners Children's Open at TPC Summerlin. He became the first player since Tiger Woods to win twice on the PGA Tour before the age of 21.

The 20-year-old got his first win at the Wyndham Championship last season which effectively earned him a place in Trevor Immelman's International side which lost to America at Quail Hollow.

On his event debut, Kim earned two points and Im earned 2.5 points towards their 12.5-point total. During the post-event party, Im showed everyone what he likes to get up to once the food and drinks are out. 

The 24-year-old danced to the famous and popular "Gangnam Style" song by PSY which broke the internet 10 years ago. The music video has since had 4.5 billion views on YouTube.

Im and Kim have certainly come out of their skin since the matches in North Carolina last month and they had more fun on the putting green at Narashino Country Club in Japan.

The pair arrived at the venue ahead of the ZOZO Championship and they were given a set of weird and wonderful putters to use. I must say, I'd love to have a go with some of these.

Im goes first and uses the putter which just looks like one big slab of metal. They both then try their arm with a conjoined putter head which has two shafts and two grips.

The machine looks the most fun. With a series of spinning clubheads attached to the end of the shaft, Kim accidentally dented the putting green while attempting to hit the ball.

Just take a look at the coverage above and enjoy...
