Collin Morikawa is cooking! No, we’re not talking about his form on the fairway. Although he would certainly prefer it if that were the case. Nevertheless, the 2-time major champion is having a great time treating himself to some delicacies. In fact, he’s also been involved in the process of cooking. Looking at Morikawa standing tall, smiling widely, and showing off his skills in the kitchen, Max Homa couldn’t help but throw shade.

Morikawa shared pictures of his time with chefs Tetsuya Wakuda and Pavel Nigai at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. He wrote, “Cooking competition? Don’t have to ask me twice. Probably better at eating than the actual cooking but thank you @cheftetsuyawakuda @pavel_nigai for showing us how it’s done. Always a great time in Singapore @marinabaysands @las_vegas_sands, if you’re looking for a new trishaw driver or chef, you know where to find me🚴‍♂️👨‍🍳.”

After browsing through his carousel of pictures, Homa commented, “Did u have a growth spurt?” For anyone who isn’t aware, Morikawa is one of the shorter golfers on the PGA Tour. He stands at only five feet and nine inches tall. As far as Homa goes, he stands fairly tall at six feet and one inch.

Among Singapore’s chefs, the 28-year-old stood out in the pictures. This led to Homa still finding a way to tease Morikawa about seemingly looking tall. Off the course, the two share a strong friendship, so it’s no surprise they enjoy playful jabs on social media.

Interestingly, their bond started long before they joined the PGA Tour. Let’s take a look at how they first met and why their friendship is so strong.

Max Homa & Collin Morikawa’s friendship

The friendship between Max Homa & Collin Morikawa began when the latter was still studying. During his time at the University of California – Berkeley, Collin had Max as the volunteer assistant coach of their college golf team. Six years his senior, Homa had already made his PGA Tour debut when he was training Morikawa at his university. So he certainly had a lot of wisdom to share. That is what helped the two connect.

Ever since then, the two have played together quite often. They have played multiple tournaments together and have also been seen practicing together often. Moreover, Max Homa and Collin Morikawa are also a part of the TGL roster. They have also represented Team U.S. in the Ryder Cup. After crossing paths with each other many times in their career, it’s no wonder they share such a great friendship.
