Max Homa plays 36 holes Friday before shooting a Saturday 66 at the Scottish Open

NORTH BERWICK, Scotland – Following 18 windswept holes in some of the week’s toughest conditions, Max Homa did what any American golfer would – he played 18 more holes.

Homa grinded out a 1-over 71 on Friday at the Genesis Scottish Open to narrowly make the cut and then headed directly to North Berwick Golf Club for another round on one of the world’s best links courses. It wasn’t exactly a “PGA Tour move,” but he explained he wanted to make the most of just his second trip to the United Kingdom.

“It's a bucket list golf course, and I never play 36 holes a day during a tournament week but for North Berwick, I had to,” Homa said.
