Stephen Curry is good, but not good enough!

Just hours before Curry?s appearance on The Match, Immelman belittles his golfing skills.

As the fans gush over Stephen Curry?s golfing skills, Immelman cautions them. He bluntly states that Curry participating at the PGA Tour would be like ?someone thinking they could play in the NFL because they were a backup running back in high school.?
