As I said earlier in this thread, that is not a great look for golf.


It's not a good look for those 8 guys. They need to nut up and get on the range. Practice better, get better. This is not a bad look for "golf" just the "pro's" hes shooting better than.

I know Curry is a world famous multi-millionaire athlete, but after some googling it appears Curry does carry a 2 handicap. I have a couple dickhead friends who play to a 2. Conceivably, they ought to be about the same caliber player as Steph.

Pros can have blow up holes, blow up days.. but after 18 holes and especially after 36 holes, if a 2 handicap is beating any more than 3-4 of them, it's a bad look for golf.

again, a bad look for the guys he's beating. Not the game itself.

Curry is taking a sport he plays as a hobby and beating other pros at that actual sport. There is no other way to say it
There are HS pitchers who could win games against AA teams.

What's your point?

Basically what deion did with baseball. It was a hobby to him and he played it at the highest level. Obviously curry is naturally talented at golf and he plays quite a bit for an amateur. He's a great athlete but you're saying it makes golf look bad but anyone who has played golf knows how difficult it can be. You just tip your hat to curry and move on

The par four fourth was a good illustration of what Curry is doing today. Both his partners hit it pure. Curry hit a clanky sounding iron but made par. He can't hit it like these guys but he is hanging with them. He reminds me of me on the hoop court. Gets the most out of what he's got
