Stephen Curry has proven his prowess not only as a great basketball player but also as a skilled golfer. Curry exuded confidence when he went head-to-head with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce alongside his fellow teammate Klay Thompson in the eighth iteration of the Match golf tournament last month. Surprisingly, Kelce and Mahomes emerged victorious when the NBA star was anticipated to breeze through the match with his remarkable +1.3 handicap.

Nicole fawns over Curry’s incredible feat

The Golden State warrior showcased an impressive moment during the American Century Championship celebrity tournament in Stateline, Nevada. On the second day of the tournament, Curry made a jaw-dropping hole-in-one on the par-3, 152-yard seventh hole at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course. He swung his pitching wedge from the tee and the ball soared through the air and dropped away from the hole before bouncing and landing right in it. As the crowd erupted in applause, an excited Curry ran with his hands aloft to the hole.

Nicole was genuinely impressed by Stephen Curry‘s game and not taking a jab at her former partner. However, the two stars were actually pitted against one another, but it had nothing to do with their golf skills.

Parallels with the two stars

Kelce with an impressive track record of eight pro bowl appearances and his consistency, has drawn comparisons to Warriors Guard Stephen Curry. “He has that Steph Curry thing, like, how long can be he an All-Pro?” an insider told a source. “He ages well because his game is not predicated on speed.”

Kelce is coming off his seventh straight 1,000-yard season and as the 33 year is heading for the upcoming season, NFL insiders believe that he shares similarities with Curry’s career trajectory as the NBA star claimed his first NBA Finals MVP award at 34 years old.
