Max Homa returns to Golf Twitter, promptly claps back at guy accusing him of slow play at BMW Championship

Thursday marked Castle Pines' long-awaited return to the PGA Tour, but it was also a day for another more unexpected comeback: Max Homa is back on Twitter.
The six-time PGA Tour winner and Golf Twitter King had been taking a break from social media. But after two months—which probably felt like the two decades Castle Pines had been away for someone so used to the space—he returned with a vengeance.
Turns out, Homa was hoping the time away from the platform—his last tweet had come on Father's Day—would get him out of his slump. But with nothing better than a T-43 at the Open Championship since then and after opening the BMW Championship with a two-over-par 74, he decided to dust off the X app.
Glad to have you back, Max. But actually, Homa's official return came three minutes earlier when he responded to a posted video hinting that he was being a slow-play problem during the first round at Castle Pines. And in classic Homa fashion, he clapped back about as nicely as possible.
Nice job staying classy out there. Social media doesn't have to be a wasteland of toxic interactions! And Twitter—especially Golf Twitter—is a better and more civilized place when this guy is around.
Good luck with your golf game, Max. And with your glutes.
