Max Homa had the perfect 4-word tweet the morning after celebrating Presidents Cup win

Max Homa and the U.S. team had A LOT of fun last night, it seems. LOL.

The United States team took care of business over the weekend at the Presidents Cup, beating the International team 17.5-12.5 in what was a more thrilling competition than most people expected it would be at Quail Hollow in Charlotte.

One of the best players on the US team was rookie Max Homa, who came into the event fresh off a win on the PGA Tour. He went a perfect 4-0 in his matches and just made all the huge putts when he needed to make them. The dude put on a show over the four days and had such a blast doing it.

He also had fun celebrating the win with everyone last night (and I’m guessing into this morning) as the champagne was flowing for what looked like a long time.

Homa, who’s the king of golf Twitter, had the perfect tweet about how he felt Monday morning:

His teammate, Justin Thomas, felt that:

Too good.

Twitter loved it.

Presidents Cup 2022: When’s the last time the International Team won?

When is the last time the International Team won?

The 2022 Presidents Cup is getting underway on Thursday at Quail Hollow, with the United States and a roster full of big golf names facing the International squad.

If it feels like the U.S. has won, like, every single Cup since the matchup started in 1994, you’d be mostly right.

But there has been one time when the International Team won: It was back in 1998 in Australia, with names like Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Greg Norman and Steve Elkington leading the squad to victory.

For what it’s worth, the two teams actually TIED back in 2003! A shared Presidents Cup!

There’s your answer.

Presidents Cup: Day 1 schedule and how to watch

See the lineup of matches on Day 1 of the Presidents Cup.

The 2019 Presidents Cup gets underway on Thursday in Australia at Royal Melbourne Golf Club, and for golf fans in the United States, that means watching Team USA take on the world in prime time. Captain and player Tiger Woods will lead the American team in four-ball action that begins Wednesday night in the USA, and there are a total of five matches on the schedule for Day 1.

If you’re unfamiliar with the different formats used in golf’s team events, four-ball is a two-on-two competition where each player plays their own ball on every hole, and the team takes the lowest score either of its respective players can score.

Televised coverage of the Presidents Cup will begin at 5:30 p.m. ET on Golf Channel. You can stream the Golf Channel online via NBC Sports Live, or via fuboTV.
