Max Homa will be hoping to continue his good form in the 2021-22 PGA Tour season when he competes in the 2022 Charles Schwab Challenge
 
The American star has been among the top performers this term having won the 2021 Fortinet Championship and 2022 Wells Fargo Championship. 
 
As a result, Homa is currently ranked 29th on the Official World Golf Rankings having won four PGA Tour events since he turned professional in 2013. 
 
The California-born golfer won his third PGA Tour title at the Fortinet Championship as he secured a one-stroke victory over Maverick McNealy in September 2021.
 
Homa then won the Wells Fargo Championship for a second time earlier this month after shooting a final round of two-under-par having also won the tournament in 2019. 
 
The former University of California, Berkeley student won the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship edition by two strokes over his compatriots Keegan Bradley, Matt Fitzpatrick and Cameron Young.
 
Homa is coming into this year's Charles Schwab Challenge having finished 13th at the 2022 PGA Championship on May 22.

"Yeah, honestly, when you look at him [Homa] play, you think he should have done better than he has," four-time major winner Rory McIlroy said about Homa after the recent Wells Fargo Championship. 
 
"I think that's sort of how he looks, how he swings it, his whole demeanour. Sometimes it just takes guys a little bit longer to sort of figure their games out and I guess live up to their potential.
 
"But he definitely seems to have come into his own over the last couple of years."
 
Ben Hogan is the most successful golfer in the history of the Charles Schwab Challenge having won the tournament a record five times.
