Homa rallies from 5 down

Southern California native Max Homa came from five shots off the lead to win the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego by two strokes over Keegan Bradley on Saturday at Torrey Pines, where Jon Rahm imploded early and missed a shot at winning his third consecutive start and moving to No. 1 in the world. Homa reeled in Sam Ryder, who was trying for a wire-towire win, and then held off Bradley and Collin Morikawa for his sixth PGA Tour win and fourth in his home state. He took the Genesis at Riviera in 2021 and has won the Fortinet Championship in Nampa in consecutive years. Homa closed with a 6-under 66 to finish at 13-under 275. He made a 4-foot birdie putt on No. 18 and pumped his right fist before greeting wife Lacey and infant son Cam just off the green. Bradley also shot a 66 on the South Course. Morikawa shot 69 and finished at 10 under. Ryder shot 75, his worst round of the week, and tied for fourth with Sahith Theegala (70) and Sungjae Im (70) at 9 under. Former University of Arkansas golfer Taylor Moore finished in a tie for 11th. Moore turned in a 71 on Saturday for a 5-under 283 overall. Austin Cook (Jonesboro, Razorbacks) shot a 75 on Saturday and completed the tournament with a 4-over 292.
