Charles Barkley nearly 2 months ago said, “I can play golf every day for the next four months and I love it, man. You know, I play golf every single day or I go fishing. I love doing nothing,” when asked about his future amidst the uncertain TNT gig. And now it seems this off-season ‘Chuck’ has finally got better at Golf. He can connect shots better on the golf course and even took some shots at Stephen Curry. But ‘King Charles’ did not stop there, he even trolled certain sections of fans during his off-season.

Playing at the 2024 American Century Celebrity Golf Championship in Lake Tahoe, Charles Barkley spoke with The Insiders on the NFL Network. Co-hosts, Steve Wyche and Ian Rapoport were impressed by the former Phoenix Suns legend display. Since ‘Chuck’ was riding a high after playing his best round ever, Rapoport asked him about dealing with pressure. Especially when a perfect shot needs to be hit without worrying about hitting any spectators on the grass.

“Oh, you know I used to feel pressured but after you hit the first couple of people in the head, It’s no big deal.” He said that he got that pressure out of the way a long time ago and admitted that the fans “deserve to get hit.” Further, he added, “I don’t feel any sympathy for that when I clock them.”

Charles Barkley stated the reason for not feeling any sympathy towards fans is because of their fault. Since they don’t pay attention to the golf course when somebody is teeing their shot. Before the fans had to face Chuck’s wrath, the 61-year-old did not spare the 2023 American Century Celebrity Champion.

Charles Barkley calls out Stephen Curry

It took ‘Chuck’ nearly a decade to get better at golf. Even Tiger Woods’ once hilarious imitated Barkley’s poor swing. However, with the help of all Stan Utley, a professional golfer, Charles Barkley ain’t struggling anymore. Finishing the first round of the 3-day event at 48th place, Charles Barkley called out the Golden State Warriors star player.

Speaking to KCRA 3’s Mike TeSelle, Charles Barkley was ready to square up with Curry on the golf course.“Steph Curry, you a coward…Ducking me. You knew I was going to beat you this year. You thought you were going to skate because you’re going to the Olympics? What kind of weak excuse is that?” Chuck knows about the importance of the Olympics after representing the country twice and winning gold medals on both occasions.

“There’s no better sporting event in the world than the Olympics,” said Charles Barkley while seriously addressing the Olympics and hoping for the team to win the Gold Medal. However, his own future is uncertain after he announced retirement after the 2024-25 season. But the hope is not all lost for Barkley and Inside Show fans.
