Max Homa fires back at hater with perfect ‘Happy Gilmore’ chirp
Pedro Salado
Last week we reported that Max Homa was back on Twitter after a summer sabbatical, barbequing haters like he was Sweet Baby Ray himself. On Monday, with a free week ahead of him after failing to qualify for the Tour Championship, Homa continued his resurgence by dunking on some dude named Craig with this ‘Happy Gilmore’-themed clapback. Take it away, Max … or should we say Adam?
Though Homa fails to make (or rather ignores) the distinction between Adam Sandler’s golf game and Happy Gilmore’s golf game, it’s still a pitch-perfect counterattack. With ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ confirmed and open-casting lines for the film winding for blocks, Happy is as hot as he’s been since 1996. It only makes sense that Homa would have gold-jacket fever just like the rest of us.
Craig does have a point, though. Since fading on the back nine during the final round of the Masters, Homa has struggled, posting his first winless season since the COVID-marred 2019-2020 campaign. In fact, his best finish since mid-May was a T-22 at the Memorial. With Homa back in vintage form on the hell hole formerly known as Twitter, however, we’re sure it’s only a matter of time until he finds his game on the course.
