Career Overview

Homa's career has seen fluctuations in form, as reflected in his world ranking positions. In 2025, he was ranked #50 in the world, showing promise as a competitive player on the PGA Tour.

Current Status

With his experience and past ranking success, Homa has the foundation to potentially climb back up the world rankings with more consistent performances.
