In addition to the mindless, hateful spew of deranged individuals like @zane_layer3, Homa got a Venmo request for $1,900 from a faceless (of course) troll by the name of Carl Watkins, including the description, “Bc you can’t putt under pressure.” In the immortal words of Elaine Benes, we are speechless, we are without speech.
It goes without saying that if you can’t cover your gambling losses, you shouldn’t be gambling. This is the very first thing in every betting service agreement on the planet earth. If you or someone else ignored that basic financial advice because of a gambling addiction, call the National Council on Problem Gambling Hotline at 1-800-GAMBLER or seek out your state’s dedicated resource center. Gambling addiction is an illness, but that illness is not Max Homa’s fault any more than it is his problem.
Of course, it’s no coincidence that Homa received this harassment just days after he explained his prolonged X absence, calling it “a safe haven for a$$ holes.” During the same answer, Homa mentioned that he was still on Instagram from time to time, where the abuse, while still present, wasn’t as bad. Unfortunately, these attention-starved individuals saw this as a challenge, and did their damndest to ruin Homa’s weekend. Joke’s on them though. While this idiot was trying to scrape up $1,900 to cover his crappy bet, Homa pocketed over $278,000 at TPC Deere Run. As always, the fastest way to shut up the haters is to simply point to the scoreboard.
