What’s inside Max Homa’s bag at the 2023 Nedbank Golf Challenge ? Golfer’s WITB explored
Max Homa shot a 3-under 69 on Saturday, November 11, to take the single-stroke lead after three rounds of the Nedbank Golf Challenge. He sank two birdies, one eagle, in his third round and also made the first bogey of the week on par-3, the fourth hole.
If Homa wins the 2023 Nedbank Golf Challenge, he will join Jon Rahm, Viktor Hovland, Cameron Smith, Scottie Scheffler, and Rory McIlroy as the only players to win at least four titles since 2022.
Matthieu Pavon started the third round with a joint lead but slipped one spot after shooting 70. Nicolai Hojgaard and Thorbjorn Olesen were both tied for third. Defending champion Tommy Fleetwood was placed joint eighth, six shots behind the lead.
Following his third round, Homa had a brief interview with the DP World Tour, where he revealed the drivers he was using at the Gary Player Golf Course.
