PGA Tour golfer Max Homa has confirmed his wife Lacey<\/a> has given birth.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The six-time PGA Tour<\/a> winner revealed before the 3M Open they were expecting their second bundle of joy.<\/p>\n

Homa<\/a>, 34, joked he really needed a win because his wife was heavily pregnant and he needed to go home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The couple welcomed their first son Cam into the world in October 2022. And now Austin has joined the family.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The golfer shared the personal news with an emotional post on his Instagram page on 8 August.<\/p>\n

\u00a0“My wife is a rockstar and Austin is very unsure of Cam (rightfully so),” he wrote. “Our hearts are so full.”<\/p>\n

Homa’s post included several pictures of the infant, along with a video of Lacey leaving the hospital with Austin in her arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The couple, who met online in 2013, tied the knot in 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A season to forget for Max Homa<\/p>\n

Homa has endured a terrible season on the PGA Tour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The golfer began the year by announcing he had switched coaches and also changed equipment manufacturer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Homa had always been a Titleist staffer but opted to sign a multi-year endorsement deal with Cobra Puma Golf.<\/p>\n

The golfer was previously inside the top 10 of the OWGR<\/a> but has now slipped to 116th after missing eight cuts this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The dip in form led to him parting ways with his long-time caddie Joe Greiner so the pair could preserve their friendship.<\/p>\n

Greiner initially found a new home with Collin Morikawa, but that partnership lasted only last six events.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ahead of the FedEx St. Jude Championship<\/a>, Greiner confirmed he was working with Jake Knapp.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As for Homa, his best result this year was a tied second at the John Deere Classic.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Max Homa<\/p>\n

The poor form is particularly difficult to fathom, given he was a standout performer of the 2023 US Ryder Cup team and was widely regarded as a player to watch in the major championships.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He has little hope now of making his second appearance in the biennial contest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Homa also missed out on the FedEx Cup playoffs, finishing 111th in the standings. Only the top 70 in the standings make it to the postseason.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I know how hard I work,” Homa previously said of his struggles. “I know how much I care. So it just feels more just s—– for myself, like internally.<\/p>\n

“I know people probably love this and some people probably hate it for me, but people like to laugh when people aren’t doing well. I would laugh at that, because I just don’t know what more I could be doing at the moment.<\/p>\n

“It’s actually easier to deal with what I think people might think because it seems so silly because they’re not sitting on the range with me for X amount of hours.”<\/p>\n
