As His Patriotic Squad Seeks ‘Redemption’ After 30-Year-Long Losing Streak, Max Homa Issues a Loud and Clear Message to European Arch-Rivals

September is building up to be a very important month for Max Homa. By the end of it, he will be with Team USA in Rome, vying hard to bring the Ryder Cup home. And ahead of that, this week he is playing to defend his two-time title at the Fortinet Championship and bring home the three-peat! While the pressure of it all would get to many, the PGA Tour star is not one of them!

These mammoth competitions haven’t deterred the spirits of Homa. In fact, he is brimming with confidence, so much so that as he prepares for the Tour event and the fast-approaching Ryder Cup, he has a warning message for the opposition as Team USA looks for “redemption”!

Max Homa is ready for an American victory on European soil

As Homa gears up for the Fortinet Championship, he is also preparing for his Ryder Cup appearance. He just gave an interview on PGA Tour Radio and shared some big insights on what kind of mental preparations are going on behind the scenes for the international face-off!

When the host Jason Sobel asked Homa if the team had chosen any particular targets for themselves in the opponents, Homa replied, “I think that we are of the understanding that all of us would like to play all of them. We have a great team, and they have a great team. I look forward to whoever we get against, to mashup with.” 

He also added that so many players on both teams had witnessed both great and not-so-great moments at the Ryder Cup that they wanted to improve upon them. “We haven’t won over there in forever”. The six-time PGA Tour winner boldly stated that the team wishes to change that and find “redemption” for the American side.

This year, the US team for the Ryder Cup is decorated with A-list golfers who are known for their strong skills on the green. As they inch closer to the prestigious event, their ultimate goal is to achieve a win, which will be America’s first win on European soil in 30 years. The last time the US won in Europe was in 1993 at the Belfry in Warwickshire, England, under the captaincy of golf legend Tom Watson.

Despite the competition, there is no bad blood between the Ryder Cup sides

Winning on the enemy’s turf has its own delicious flavor, and Homa and the other team members who haven’t tasted it wish to do so. He added, “We have a lot of guys on this team who haven’t had that experience. So I am sure that they would like their redemption. I imagine the European team would be the same.” But game aside, he also clarified that there is no ill will on his end towards the other team.

“There is really no bad blood with anybody over there on my end,” he said, making it clear that even though the tournament would see intense competition, he was only going to dish it out on the course and not off it!

The main motive of Homa and the rest of the team right now is to attain a victory in Rome. But before that, Homa also wishes to acquire a third win at the Fortinet Championship this week. Tune in to find out if he will be able to!
