[Asia Economy Reporter Nowrae] NBA superstar Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors) visited the site of a PGA Tour major golf tournament.

On the 10th (Korean time), he watched the play of world-class players on the final day of the PGA Championship (total prize money $11 million) held at Harding Park TPC (Par 70, 7,234 yards) in San Francisco, California. The Associated Press reported that "Curry visited the golf course as a 'guest reporter'." Curry actually attended a press conference and asked Collin Morikawa (USA), "Did you happen to look at the leaderboard during the match?"

Morikawa, who said, "I saw you at the 9th hole," joked, "My caddie is a huge Golden State fan, but I am not. I'm an LA boy." Morikawa is from Los Angeles. Curry responded with an offer, "I have some free time for the next three months, so if you ever need a caddie, call me." Morikawa replied, "That sounds great," and "I'm looking forward to it." Curry is a 'legendary shooter' who won the NBA regular season MVP in 2015 and 2016.

He is also an amateur golf expert with a handicap of 0.1. In an interview with Golf Digest, he expressed his passion by saying, "I have considered transforming into a professional golfer after retirement." However, he was 'cut off' when he played as a player in the 2017 PGA Web.com (second-tier) Tour Ellie Mae Classic, and was satisfied with shooting 74 strokes for two days. In 2018, he even planned to host a PGA Tour event, showing his exceptional love for golf.
