What Will Be?
Golf Digest Middle East|September 2020
In the U.S. They are unequivocal. Max Homa is the best Twitter follow on the PGA Tour and therefore, by default in that very American way of things, the best golf follow on the platform full stop.

What Will Be?
At Golf Digest’s global HQ in New York they promote the Homa theory every time the 2019 Wells Fargo champion pops up on a leaderboard. Heck, the Scottsdale-based pro doesn’t even have to be playing well for our colleagues to further bolster his social media stock. A search of the parentGolf Digest website elicits mentions of Homa’s Twitter “roast game”, how he celebrated his dog Scotty’s fourth birthday “on Twitter, of course”, his tweeted “torching” of former NFL players’ swings and even a run-in with a runaway tee box umbrella. Classic Twitter fodder. Delve to page two and there’s more roasting of celebrity swings, how he’d run afoul of fantasy golf participants on (you guessed it) Twitter and a headline that clears things up just in case you were still unconvinced: “Max Homa, the best PGA Tour follow on Twitter, on success, social media and betting on himself”.

We’re not disputing Homa is worthy of some of your precious scroll time. It’s just that we quite like how they do golf, and humour, on the other side of the mighty Atlantic Ocean. Just as a classic UK links trumps a leafy U.S. parkland in the author’s humble opinion, give me a droll British comedy over American slapstick any day.

Get Set - Ball-striking success starts at address

AMATEURS OFTEN STAND OVER THE BALL with their feet too wide apart. I understand the appeal—they want to feel more stable throughout the swing, and a wider stance seems a logical way to achieve that.
