Max Homa is among a group of Masters contenders who are vying for their first major title
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Max Homa figures if he can conquer the mental task of playing well in a group with Tiger Woods for 36 holes at the Masters, he can accomplish pretty much anything in golf.
That includes winning his first major championship.
Homa was tied for the lead at 6-under 138 with world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau heading into Saturday’s third round at Augusta National.
The 33-year-old Homa is no stranger to winning. He has six PGA Tour victories and another on the European tour. He’s ranked 11th in the world.
But his resume in majors is a little thin. His best finish is a tie for 10th last year at the British Open, where he never had a realistic chance of winning.
Homa concluded his first-round on 67 Friday morning to leave him two shots shot back of DeChambeau through 18 holes. That was the first time he had ever been in the top five after a round at a major. His second-round 71 in tough conditions later Friday was enough to move him into a tie for the lead.
