Over the weekend, Stephen Curry traded in his basketball sneakers for his golf clubs in Lake Tahoe. For the eighth consecutive year, the Golden State Warriors guard joined a powerhouse field at Edgewood Golf Resort in Lake Tahoe for the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament.
Alongside his father Dell, the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player mixed it up with boxer Canelo Alvarez and played rounds with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and NFL Hall of Famer Jerry Rice.
On the course, Curry started off the first day with an underwhelming round, finishing at No. 11 on the scorecard. However, a pair of solid performances during the weekend rounds catapulted Curry towards the top of the leaderboard.
On day three, the point guard turned golfer recorded the top score on the Stableford scoring system with 26.
Curry’s scorching round three pushed him into the top-five spots on the leaderboard. Curry was able to improve three spots from his 2019 seventh-place finish.
The six-time All-Star finished fourth (56), behind MLB Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz (58), former Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams (67) and tournament champ Mardy Fish (76).
Back-to-back tournament champion Tony Romo was unable to defend his title after suffering a wrist injury. In his American Century Championship debut, Super Bowl Champion Patrick Mahomes finished at No. 38 on the leaderboard with four total points.
To cap off three days of golf, Curry joined Fish and Alvarez for a dive into the water of Lake Tahoe.
