In a scene reminiscent of a Golden State Warriors championship, Curry celebrates his first American Century Championship win at Lake Tahoe’s Edgewood golf course. He showcased his skills with an impressive performance in the first round and a remarkable hole-in-one in the second round. Curry closed the deal with an eagle putt on No. 18 to become the first active athlete to win in Tahoe. He’ll donate the $125k to charity.
With the poise of a player shooting over 90% from the free throw line, Curry sunk a putt on the 18th hole to secure the celebrity tournament title. The crowd erupted in cheers as he threw his cap in the air and rushed to embrace his wife, Ayesha. Reflecting on the moment, Curry expressed his joy in fulfilling a long-held dream of sinking a putt on the 18th green in front of such a supportive audience. Despite participating in the tournament for nearly a decade, this victory held special significance for him.
Curry finished with a score of 75, narrowly surpassing former tennis pro Mardy Fish, who ended at 73. Other athletes tied to the Bay Area, including Aaron Rodgers, John Elway, Mark Mulder, and Joe Pavelski, all achieved top-ten finishes. Notably, Dell Curry, Steph’s father, secured the 11th position in the tournament.
