"I’m trying, dog" - Max Homa gives candid response to trolls making big comments about his career

Max Homa clapped back with a solid reply to fans trying to troll him for his golf career. The American golfer, who has 683K followers on X, is widely known for his active presence on social media.

Fans recently tried to troll Homa, and the PGA Tour player shut them down with his response. On October 31, the 33-year-old shared a post about his lost AirPod. He wrote:

"Lost my AirPods a couple weeks ago and haven’t had time to get new ones. I’ve had to workout and practice with no music or podcast to distract me. To my surprise, there’s been a lot of benefits. A thread."

However, a fan in the comment section took a jibe at the golfer, writing:

"Shut up and win a major."

Homa was quick to reply to the fan, saying:

"I’m trying, dog."

Meanwhile, another fan commented:

"Trying to win a major or trying to shut up?"

To which, Homa replied:

"Actually both"

Homa started playing professionally in 2013 and has since won nine events in his career, with six of his victories recorded on the PGA Tour.

He has competed in all four Majors but is still seeking his first Major victory. His best finish at the Masters came in 2024, where he tied for 3rd place, while his top result at the PGA Championship was a T13 in 2022. He recorded his best finish at the U.S. Open with a T47 in 2022, and his best performance at The Open Championship was a T10, achieved in 2023.
