Steph Curry, known for his amazing long-range shooting and clutch moments on the court, didn\u2019t mean to steal the limelight on the golf course\u2014but that\u2019s exactly what he did on Saturday. During the second round of the American Century Championship, the 37-year-old TNT sensation grabbed a basketball and attempted a backward, no-look shot at a hoop located near the 16th hole at Edgewood Tahoe Resort.But then everything changed unexpectedly. Rather than a clean swish, the ball got jammed awkwardly between the wooden boards that frame the rim. Even Curry, famous for his cool demeanor, was shocked. A moment from NBCS Warriors really nails this scene \u2014\u201cSteph wedgie\u2019d a ball and couldn\u2019t believe it\u201dAnyone who\u2019s seen Curry\u2019s trick shot highlights knows he often breaks the laws of physics\u2014but this slip-up was a new one. The crowd, however, responded immediately: laughter and applause rang out across the Tahoe fairway. And while the shot didn\u2019t go as he hoped, Curry\u2019s ability to chuckle at his own mistakes only added to his appeal among the celebrity crowd.He may have had a laugh-out-loud moment, but it didn\u2019t mess up his performance. After two rounds, Curry is tied for ninth place in the tournament, keeping him in the running as he gets ready for the final round on Sunday.Curry being at Tahoe isn\u2019t only about having fun and making trick shots\u2014it\u2019s also about his genuine golf talent. He came back to the tournament this July as a co-defending champion after clinching victory in 2023 with an impressive eagle putt on the last hole and the first-ever hole-in-one on the seventh hole. That win wasn\u2019t just luck: in Round 1 of 2025, Curry scored 21 points under the modified Stableford scoring system\u2014tying for third place.Also Read: Jayson Tatum personally recruiting Damian Lillard to Boston Celtics as both stars recover from injuries<\/a>Curry’s golf game is polished by a close-knit crew working behind the scenes.
