Max Homa had Golf Twitter abuzz overnight. And for once, it had nothing to do with anything he tweeted.
The six-time PGA Tour winner got off to a red-hot start to his second round at the PGA Championship. And that included coming incredibly close to making some major championship history.

Starting on Quail Hollow’s back nine, Homa had already birdied two of his first four holes when he stepped to the tee on the driveable par-4 14th. And then he did this. Prepare to have your jaw drop.
It's a 347-yard par 4 and Max Homa did this… #PGAChamp pic.twitter.com/SY0tabOf6a

A driver from 317 metres to tap-in range. Over the trees. With the water just left of where he hit it. Unreal. This look from behind is even more insane:

There’s only been one par-4 ace in PGA Tour history. And that was a bit of a fluke as Andrew Magee banked his golf ball off another player’s putter and into the hole on TPC Scottdale’s 17th at the 2001 Phoenix Open.
Anyway, Homa was certainly happy with a tap-in eagle as he moved to four-under through five holes, eventually shooting 64. Especially because he’s been struggling with his game during the past year.
But he’s certainly not struggling now. And we’re pretty certain no one will hit a more spectacular shot this year.
