Max Homa will be confident of securing his third win of the 2021-22 PGA Tour season by winning the Rocket Mortgage Classic title.
 
The American star has been one of the standout performers this season having won two tournaments as he establishes himself as one of the best golfers in the world.
 
Homa won the first tournament of the current campaign in September last year which was the 2021 Fortinet Championship - outclassing Maverick McNealy in a play-off round. 
 
The Burbank-born golfer then won the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship for a second time in May this year after he shot a final round of two under par.
 
Homa, who is a former University of California student, won by two strokes over Keegan Bradley, Matt Fitzpatrick and Cameron Young.
 
The 31-year-old is a four-time winner in the PGA Tour having also clinched the 2019 Wells Fargo Championship and 2021 Genesis Invitational.
 
Homa, who is currently ranked 20th in the Official World Golf Rankings, missed the cut at the recent 2022 Open Championship and he will be seeking redemption at Rocket Mortgage Classic.

“I was in Alabama last week with my coach, Mark Blackburn,” Homa said after winning the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship.
 
“We put in a lot of good work. Game's been good and we were just talking most about mental, just being confident. 
 
"He said, ‘When are you going to start to believe in yourself? I said, ‘Well, I guess maybe today.’ So I've just been trying to walk around and fake it a little bit," he continued. 
 
"Honestly, it's funny how that ‘fake it till you make it’ thing, I started to believe it and I showed up on that first tee very confident today.”
