Professional PGA golfer John Maxwell Homa, also known as Max Homa, was formerly a member of the Web.com Tour. In January 2024, Homa made history with the longest drive in the ShotLink era of the PGA Tour with a 477-yard drive during the third round of The Sentry (since 2003).
Homa had a remarkable amateur career, making it to the 2010 US Amateur quarterfinals before falling to An Byeong-hun. He also qualified for the 2013 Walker Cup and won the NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship.
Homa's PGA Tour debut came after he finished 17th on the Web.com Tour regular-season money list in 2014–15. He made his PGA Tour debut at the 2013 Frys.com Open, and he won his first PGA tournament at the 2019 Wells Fargo Championship.
The Farmers Insurance Open in 2023 was his most recent win, coming back from a two-shot deficit over Keegan Bradley. Then he played for the United States in the 2023 Ryder Cup; he lost 3-1 to Europe, but he won the Sunday singles match against Matt Fitzpatrick. He had also won his first tournament outside of the United States by November, the Nedbank Golf Challenge.
Who is Max Homa's caddie?
Max Homa's caddie is Joe Greiner as of April 2024.
Greiner and Homa had been childhood friends and former golfing partners at Vista Valencia Golf Club in California. Greiner initially worked with Homa briefly in 2013 before joining American golfer Kevin Chappell's team for a brief period. However, when Chappell went in to a back surgery, Greiner returned to Homa's side in 2019 and has remained there ever since.
Greiner, who wanted to become a professional golfer himself, played collegiate golf at the College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, California. He even earned an invitation to compete on the Professional Mini Tour but took a break from it to pursue his degree.
Despite never turning pro, Greiner and Homa appear to have strong coordination, as they have won multiple PGA Tour events together, including the Genesis Invitational (2021), the 2023 Farmers Insurance Open, two Wells Fargo Championships, and two Fortinet Championships.
Homa's victory in the 72-man Nedbank Golf Challenge at Gary Player Country Club in Sun City, South Africa, in November 2023 marked the pair's most recent DP World Tour win.
Remarkably, Homa has gotten Jim "Bones" Mackay into the bag a few times over his career, most notably at the Kiawah Island PGA Championship in 2021. The reason for this collaboration was that Greiner was able to qualify for the U.S. Amateur Four-Ball Championship, although this was a brief collaboration.
