Max Homa spoke to the media at the Genesis Invitational, where he expressed excitement to see Tiger Woods and hopefully get passed the golf politics and bring joy to golf fans.
I’m just happy to see the man not limping as much uh yeah I mean it’s just great every event is better when Tiger’s here it’s pretty amazing you know what he brings to an event with his you know presence on the golf course obviously it’s it’s great
That he’s had his name attached to this but we you know you want to see him play all the fans want to see him play I don’t think it changes a whole lot it just makes the event feel bit bigger um yeah and it’s I don’t know it’s just
Always they always say like especially when you’re a rookie your first Tour event is until you play Farmers cuz Tiger’s there that’s when it actually starts to feel like you know what you watched on TV so something about that when he’s around it the event feels um
You have less people watching you play golf but there are more people watching golf which is cool my focus is on hopefully being a part of a group of golfers who can entertain the fans best we can all that stuff’s great it’s way over my head it’s above my pay grade I
Just hope that everything that comes from this is tailored to making golf more fun to watch more fun to be at um and just I mean like like growing the game through this whatever this investment will do I I hope that it’s for of course they want to make money
Back but I hope it’s for a purpose to bring not only bring more eyeballs to golf but also like keep the eyeballs we’ve got and make it better because people spend a lot of their time watching golf on TV or watching sports on TV and you’d want it to evolve to
Continue to tailor be tailored to that person because they’re investing time and energy and emotion into something and you want them to get that back you watch something like the Super Bowl and there’s a reason people are so invested in it it’s because it’s a culmination of
A year of even when you don’t care about the teams a lot it’s like you feel what they feel and you’re sucked in as a fan I just want whatever that may be I want more of that for the fans and and less of um less distraction from the point of
This which is to bring people some kind of Joy or some kind of emotion on Saturdays and Sundays
