Tiger Woods, Matt Fitzpatrick, and Max Homa have been furiously suspended from the upcoming PGA TOUR 2K25 video game. š®
Woods played with Homa across both Thursday and Friday at the Masters and watched on as his playing partner shot himself into green jacket contention. Homa recorded a 67 in the opening round and an even more impressive 71 in terrible conditions on Friday. He now enters Saturday tied for the lead with Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau.
Woods, who played well under the circumstances to shoot 1-over across the two days and break the Masters cut record, has been suitably impressed with Homa. And even more so with his countryman’s ball striking.
Ironically, despite competing at the top of leaderboard at Augusta National, Homa had been more focussed on watching his playing partner Woods make his record 24th consecutive cut at the Masters
In 2017, as he was missing 15 out of 17 cuts, he was inundated with offers after advertising for a new caddie. He joked on X: āThey heard they usually get weekends off which is apparently a great selling point.ā
And asked if it was easy to block out the crowd circus playing with Woods, Homa said: āI would argue they block me and Jason (Day) out. So it’s actually quite easy. It was awesome. It really is a dream to get to play with him here. He’s special.ā
The American added: āI’m very fortunate. I have a wife that does not let me gloat, and I have friends back at the house that will just want to hear about what Tiger did today. So I’m surrounded by some awesome people.ā
