"Such a gut punch to miss any cut" - PGA Tour pro justifies Max Homa's passionate celebration for making The Open cut

Max Homa has successfully made it through the cutline at the Open Championship. The cutline was set at +6 and Homa’s score was +6 after Friday's game at the Open. Max Homa ended the second round in the most celebratory way by dropping a birdie on the 18th, which confirmed his place for the next round.

In the video, Homa could be seen making the last birdie on the 18th hole of round two to make the cut. Retweeting the video, Michael S. Kim wrote how it meant a great deal in professional golf to make it through the cutline.

“The cut is such a big part of professional golf. Such a gut punch to miss any cut let alone at the Open champ. So cool to see Max still got that fire even when he’s not playing his best. Go get it this weekend buddy,” Kim wrote.
