ORLANDO, Fla. – In addition to a career resurgence that included a breakthrough win last year, Max Homa has gained some recent social-media notoriety for roasting the golf swings of many of his followers on Twitter. After his worst shot of the week was caught on TV at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, he’s not afraid to get some of that criticism in return.
Homa was the low man of the day Saturday at Bay Hill, shooting a 2-under 70 amid brutal conditions, but he encountered some difficulty Sunday on the par-5 sixth hole. Homa’s approach flew the green, and his subsequent attempt at a heroic flop shot instead went careening sideways into a greenside TV tower.
