Max Homa is making moves at Quail Hollow, shooting a 7-under 64 — the low score of Friday — in part thanks to nearly acing the 344-yard 14th hole.
He’s a combined 3-under through two rounds and he’s proving this short par 4 is playing right into his hands. On Wednesday, he did a walk and talk brought to you by Champ Connections powered by @TMobile with Alexandra O’Laughlin on the same hole, revealing his strategy on how he wanted to attack the scoreable hole.
In a wide-ranging discussion, Homa chatted about how he wants to handle the contours around No. 14’s green with his team, chipping from varying lies. He broke down where he wants to end up off the tee with the greens, then took some rapid-fire questions from his favorite on-course snack to how he handles the notifications from his endless group chats.
Homa is three back of Johnattan Vegas’s lead through the morning wave at Quail Hollow, headed into the weekend in contention for his first-ever major title.
