PGA Tour stars may not be competing anywhere at the moment. Deeming to their ongoing leisure time, they may find time to have some banter on Twitter. Justin Thomas, who had an amazing last season, decided to take a comical jab at his fellow Tour star, Max Homa, who posted an advertisement video of himself with Jim ‘Bones’ Mackay, who happens to be the caddie of Thomas.

Justin Thomas appointed veteran caddie Mackay as his full-time caddie last year. Bones previously had been the caddie for 6-time Major winner, Phil Mickelson, for nearly 25 years. However, following their separation, Mackay joined forces with the aspiring great of the PGA Tour, Thomas.
However, in a recent Amazon Web Services advertisement, the legendary caddie was seen alongside Max Homa. JT wasn’t too pleased with the video, as he had some words for his colleague.
Is Justin Thomas feeling jealous?
Homa reshared the latest ad video featuring himself and Mackay on his Twitter handle. In the video, both men talk about how great their sponsor Tour cast is during a golf session. Moreover, Homa also perfectly puts a ball in a bottle, which impressed the veteran caddie, as he exclaims, “Nice!”, after watching the shot.
1 take. Good read Bones

Though most athletes struggle with script reading during their video shoot, it wasn’t a challenge for the PGA Tour star and Bones. According to Max Homa, it required only one take for the advertisement. He was quite proud of this achievement as he took to Twitter to address it. “1 take. Good read Bones”, tweeted the 32-year-old.
Watching his caddie with another golfer may have been unpleasant for Thomas, as he reacted to the video by tweeting, “Hey man. Get your own Bones”. Homa, who is quite active on Twitter, had a final say on the situation as he replied to the two-time Major winner with GIF that read, “Haters gonna hate”.
Amazon Web Series, the makers of the advertisement, too shared their reaction to the hysterical back and forth with a side-eye emoji. However, everyone is well aware that the two golfers are only joking, and there is no jealousy or insecurity whatsoever. Nonetheless, fans would love to know how Jim ‘Bones’ Mackay reacted to the banter, knowing two of the best golfers on the PGA Tour are fighting for him.
