Max Homa dedicates special Instagram post for his wife and ‘cool’ son after missing the cut at US Open 2024

Max Homa has failed to make the cut at the US Open 2024. The third Major of the year, the US Open, is being held at Pinehurst No. 2 in Pinehurst, North Carolina.

After missing the cut, Max Homa dedicated a special Instagram post to his wife Lacey Croom and their son Cam Andrew. He captioned the post:

"Sucks missing the cut. Pinehurst may be my favorite course I’ve ever played. On the bright side my wife is still a rocket, my son is cool as hell, and I get another chance next week."

Max Homa married Lacey Croom in 2019 and welcomed their firstborn Cam Andrew in November 2022.

Homa had a decent first round at the US Open 2024. He scored two birdies and three bogeys to finish 1-over 71 on the first day and looked in a comfortable position to make the cut. However, a string of bogeys in the second round curtailed his move to the weekend. The American scored six bogeys and one birdie to finish 5-over 75 in the second round.

Max Homa missed the cutline by one stroke and finished with an aggregated score of 6-over 146 after 36 holes. In six starts at the US Open, Homa has made the cut only once in 2022. He finished at T47 in 2022.
