They said, “Hey Max, Big Cat told me to tell you hello,” and “If I showed up to my club like that, they would tell me to go home.” It might be accurate, but he is one of the finest golfers; who will stop him? “Big cat says hi Max,” was also part of the reactions from the fans. However, some fans showed faith in the six times winner on the PGA Tour, saying, “Max for sure winning the PIP this year.” Whereas some fans called him a “Wimpy gate.”
