Max Homa mentioned hearing support for his play down the stretch at the Genesis Invitational, but often times paired with boos of eventual winner Jon Rahm. Matt Adams discusses the behavior of some fans that may be acceptable at the WM Phoenix Open or a Ryder Cup, but not usually at Tour events.

I adore Rahm over Homa. I like Homa but I adore Rahm due mostly to his attitude on and off the course.
I have no problem Americans pulling for American players . Fitzpatrick was getting it strong at US Open per full swing episode . It happens .
It’s not because it’s a ruder cup year. The Ryder cup is getting less and less important with so many stars out. If anything soon these fans see Rahm and homa on the same team in that regard: jays team.
Max is liked in LA. Rahm is easy to dislike imo. I highly respect rahm but button line he is not the most likeable. I’m probably more like rahm than max, but I’ll root for that classy guy everyday over one of golf biggest giant cry babies ever. Seve got away with it because have you seen that man’s charisma. Sergio has it also
To a lesser extent. Rahm has like none of it. Some people will like rahm. But every time he cries about a little noise it only makes him less likeable and more likely some little noise —on purpose or not— will happen.
Fans don’t try to make noise while someone is playing, they just try really hard not to make noise when their favorites are hitting.
Rahm needs to stop crying to be more popular. It’s that simple. But not easy for the big man.
I'm an American, I love Rahm, but I also thought Seve was the greatest!
Homa. California kid
