SAN DIEGO — It says it right there in the PGA Tour bio of Max Homa: “Favorite city is San Diego.” Now we’re talking. There’s someone near the top of the leaderboard at the hallway point of the Farmers Insurance Open for the locals to wrap their tanned arms around.
No need to build a rooting-interest case for fans zig-zagging the emerald cliffsides at Torrey Pines the next two days. It’s already signed, sealed and delivered — in five words.
“I’m a Southern California boy through and through,” Homa said.
