I’ll add one more to the card this week after taking Rahm at the top. Homa has been playing some great golf so far in the early part of 2021, this included last week when he posted a top-twenty finish at Torrey Pines.

Max was 6th at the Waste Management Phoenix Open last year and he has made the cut in Arizona in his two starts so far. The 30-year-old Californian gained a massive four strokes with his irons last week over the three measured rounds and he rates out as the best player in this week’s field on PAR 5’s over his last 24 rounds.
