Steph Curry emerged victorious in the 2023 American Century Championship, securing a two-point win over Mardy Fish. He managed an even-par 72 on Sunday, July 16, at Edgewood Tahoe South.
The Golden State Warriors were three points behind Fish until the 18th hole, where he encountered a distraction by the fans and his shot went into the audience gallery.
While Fish had to settle for a par and just one point on the final hole, Curry went on to hole an eagle that awarded him six points and hence a title victory at Edgewood Tahoe South.
Curry was impressive throughout the week, and he once again displayed why he was a serious golfer. Following a 3-under 69 on Friday, he shot a 1-over 73 on Saturday.
Over the three days, the 35-year-old NBA star made one ace, three eagles, seven birdies, and just nine bogeys, which is impressive for a non-professional.
