Max Homa is hoping the home comforts of playing a local US Open, at the Los Angeles Country Club where he’s won before and holds the course record, can help him follow Matt Fitzpatrick’s example and win a maiden Major title.
Homa is not among the betting favourites for the US Open this week, but he certainly has a few factors in his favour in a similar way Fitzpatrick had last year when he won the title at a familiar venue.
