CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The PGA Tour season remains on pause and as the month of June approaches, there is hope that tournaments could resume. 

Max Homa is looking forward to the chance to make his schedule once again.

"If you told me I need to play every week, I would love to play every week," Homa told reporters this week. "This has definitely made me appreciate golf, tournament golf, the PGA Tour, and hanging out with my buddies."

The was no questioning the sincerity in Homa's voice. The reigning Wells Fargo champion has been on standby from the game he loves, due to the coronavirus outbreak. 

His first win on the PGA Tour in Charlotte was special, but he is being deprived of a shot at repeating that feat, as the tournament has been canceled for 2020.  Instead, his chance for a back to back win at this event will come when the Wells Fargo shifts to Maryland in 2021, as Quail Hollow will be prepping for the President's Cup that year.

"Yeah, it's not going to be the same.  I'm not going to get to play Quail Hollow for the first time back," said Homa. "Hopefully I can start a new tradition and win up in Maryland. Then I'll have a couple courses in the rotation that I can hold my hat on."

The PGA Tour is aiming to resume its schedule in Texas on June 11. Full details are still being finalized, and there is one scenario being discussed that would exclude caddies being allowed.  It would certainly be a different twist from normal tournament play for Homa

"I mean, it would stink, but I guess we'd all have to blame ourselves for being unprepared," Homa continued.  "I think we could handle it, but I'm hoping they don't make us carry the staff bags.  That could get a little difficult, but at this point, I would carry two staff bags to play some golf in a tournament."

The COVID-19 pandemic cost Homa his debut at The Masters, but only for the moment.  He says his disappointment in not playing is nothing compared to the real world issues facing everyone. Then there is the lack of a haircut.  Homa hasn't had one in quite some time, and it's, for lack of a better description, growing on him.

"For charity, I did shave both my arms and legs, so I didn't really think that my arms and legs would be hairless before my actual head.  That's a shock, Vegas probably lost money on that one," Homa quipped.  "I don't look my normal 'incredibly-handsome-probably-best-looking-guy-on-tour' self, so that's been tough."
