It’s time for the Memorial Tournament! However, the hype has been taken away from the course thanks to this American professional’s unique social media trend. Max Homa, who has been in the news in the past few years for his dipping performance, has recently featured a video that left the golfing community amused. Such was the impact of the video that it even turned the scrutiny and backlash from fans for his performance into praise!

This year hasn’t been the best for Homa as he missed the cut in five consecutive events, adding to his already declining performance. His best performance in 2025 came at the Masters, where he finished T12. However, despite all this stress, Homa is doing what he does best – being the funny boy of golf that he is. In the past, the golfer had taken the spotlight with his witty humor. Take the example of when he was asked to break down Aaron Rodgers’ swing, and he quickly replied, saying, “Oh god, I can be mean about this one.” Though that is the past, now in 2025, he not only earned praise for his actions but also took over the spotlight from the reporter, Amanda Balionis. It is rare to see that Balinois put in the back seat by a golfer, that too, without swinging the ball.

Recently, Kiara Dixon posted a video of following a trend with Amanda Balionis and Michelle Wie West. Dixon is known for taking up the trends well in the past. However, the new participants, West and Balionis, were themselves a win for the fans. The former professional and the golf reporter of CBS have been active on social media, but never took up a trend. In the post shared by Dixon, the trio did a dance move on the song ‘My Main’ by Mia J feat. Ty Dolla $ign.

But what struck the fans was the cameo of Max Homa, who joined the trio with the hook step. Even at the end of the video, Keegan Bradley was also doing the same step at a far distance. The 38-year-old is active on social media, showcasing the fun time with family. However, this is the first time that we see him performing a step, knowing only from the song.

Sharing the post, Dixon wrote on the caption, “Technically didn’t win the pro-am… or did we?
Shoutout @keeganbradley1 and @maxhoma for matching the vibes. Thank you for the BEST day @workday_sports @memorialgolf #golf #workday #memorialtournament.” 

Apart from the praise in the caption, he earned the support of fans for the first time this season despite his form.
