Max Homa’s second win in less than five months was enough to give the 31-year-old his best world ranking ever this week.
Homa successfully defended his title at the Fortinet Championship on Sunday, marking his second win this calendar year and first of the new PGA Tour season. The win pushed the 5-time PGA Tour winner to No. 16 in the world – his highest Official World Golf Ranking ever and the first time he has been ranked in the top 20 since July.
Danny Willett and Homa made for an exciting pairing on Sunday evening at Silverado Resort and Spa’s North Course, where the American made an unlikely chip-in for birdie to put pressure on the Brit.
