Homa threw his golf club in frustration on Sunday while playing in the final round of the RBC Heritage at at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, S.C. The 35-year-old got stuck … The post Max Homa gets gets called out for hypocrisy after throwing his club in anger appeared first on Larry Brown Sports.
Max Homa launched his golf club in frustration during the final round of the RBC Heritage on Sunday, and it was a tough scene for the six-time PGA Tour winner for more reasons than one.Homa, who began the final round 18 shots behind leader Matt Fitzpatrick, hit a wayward teeshot and was left in a very tough position in a waste area amongst the trees at Harbour Town. After not making the contact he wanted on a punch shot in an attempt to escape the trouble, Homa chucked his iron into the ground a few yards ahead of him, with the iron ultimately making contact with a tree.With his name well down the leaderboard and not playing up to his standard, Homa let his emotions take over and let out some frustrations by throwing his club. These things happen, even for a player who has won a half-dozen times on Tour, but the timing of Homa's club toss makes the whole scenario a bit hypocritical.During his pre-tournament press conference on Wednesday, Homa was asked about the Masters' code of conduct being tested at Augusta National over the past weekend, following Sergio Garcia's temper tantrum on the second hole in the final round.READ: It Only Took Sergio Garcia Two Days To Apologize After Damaging Teebox During Masters Temper TantrumGarcia damaged the tee box on the hole before breaking his driver after smacking it on a nearby cooler. The chairman of the competition committee at Augusta National reportedly spoke with Garcia on the fourth tee box about his outburst.While Homa did not specifically mention Garcia by name during his remarks about the code of conduct topic, it doesn't take much to read between the lines."I say a lot of bad words," Homa said. "I very much try to do it not when a kid can hear. So I do think there's some, hey, don't say it in front of the wrong person, like be a bit aware of your surroundings. Not saying I've never done it. I don't like when people break clubs. I don't like when people beat up the golf course because we deal with it, and I think breaking clubs makes us look very, very spoiled."I try my absolute best not to do it, and when it does happen, as far as slamming a tee box, I'm very upset with myself because we're very lucky to play this game where we do, and I think it is a bad look. But again, this is a very frustrating game, and it happens. I don't know where I'd draw that line exactly, but I definitely think beating up a golf course would be probably -- because the rest of us have to play it."It's his note about looking "spoiled" that stands out.Homa didn't damage a tee box with his club throw on Sunday, or even a part of the golf course that another player might see during Sunday's action, but it's still not the best of looks, given his comments just a few days prior.
Max Homa had a somewhat frustrating weekend at the RBC Heritage in Hilton Head, South Carolina. At one point, the golfer lost his composure on the course.

There is no winner's purse involved in the annual Masters Par 3 contest, but that doesn't mean money doesn't regularly change hands between players, which is exactly what happened in Justin Thomas' group on Wednesday afternoon at Augusta National.Thomas made the 116th hole-in-one in the event's history with a perfect shot on the second hole of the Par 3 course. After his golf ball disappeared into the bottom of the cup, the two-time major winner immediately turned to his playing partners and good friends, Jordan Spieth and Max Homa, and not so subtly let them know they owed him some cash.Anyone who makes an ace during the Masters Par 3 contest receives a crystal vase from Augusta National, but it's safe to assume JT was more concerned with taking coin off of Spieth and Homa. The obvious question here is just how much cash were JT, Homa, and Spieth playing for in their hole-in-one game. Normal golfers out there who aren't worth millions and millions of dollars typically have a built-in hole-in-one pool in whatever gambling game they're playing on the course worth $100.Shortly after making his ace, Thomas revealed on the ESPN broadcast that his group's hole-in-one game involved another zero, with Spieth and Homa on the hook for $1,000 each.Homa has made over $29 million in his career and Spieth has taken home over $67 million, so forking over $1,000 doesn't exactly make a dent, but it's safe to say neither of them will enjoy paying out JT.This isn't the first time Spieth has witnessed a JT ace during the Masters Par 3 contest. He just so happened to be playing alongside Rickie Fowler and Thomas in 2016 when the pair made back-to-back holes-in-one on the fourth hole. It seems like the Masters Par 3 contest has become an expensive event for Spieth over the years.
Golfers who compete at The Masters won’t officially take home any money until the major wraps up on Sunday. However, it sounds like Justin Thomas managed to line his pockets early at the expense of Jordan Spieth and Max Homa after making a hole-in-one at the annual Par-3 Contest. Players who are invited to compete […] The post Justin Thomas Celebrated Hole-In-One By Telling Max Homa And Jordan Spieth To Pay Up After Winning Par-3 Contest Bet At The Masters appeared first on BroBible.
Max Homa gave a brutally honest interview after Tiger Woods and Jupiter Links were swept by Los Angeles Golf Club in the TGL finals for the $9-million prize
As my shuttle bus from the SoFi Center, home of TGL, approached the Red Lot for staff and media just before midnight last night, my phone buzzed. It was a text with some important breaking golf news. Last night was my second trip south from Orlando to Palm Beach and the SoFi Center to cover and ...
