At 35 years old, the mature native Australian admittedly didn’t always know what was coming next and doesn’t truly know now.

Homa — who beat Justin Suh, 3 and 2, in his opening match, and then came from behind to get the same result against match-play guru and friend Kevin Kisner on Thursday — moved into the round of 16 after Hideki Matsuyama withdrew before...
