After a disappointing 2023 season, Stephen Curry still made history in a different field. The Golden State Warriors star player managed to sink a 152-yard hole-in-one at a celebrity golf tournament. His elation was evident as he celebrated by running wildly after the shot. Another eminent personality to share Curry’s passing for golf is former President Barack Obama. They often spend time together, playing golf or enjoying dinner. Two years after being asked not to reveal “top secret” information about his game with Mr. Obama, Stephen Curry admits to having “fun” with the former president.

In a recent interview with Complex’s Joe La Puma, Stephen Curry discussed his history of sneakers with President Obama. Notably, the 9x NBA All-Star paid tribute to Obama when he was leaving office. To celebrate his consecutive NBA MVP honors and Obama?s election wins in 2008 and 2012, he wore the Under Armour Curry 3 sneakers. The shoes had the phrase ?Back 2 Back? engraved at the bottom to celebrate their victories. As we all are aware of Curry’s charitable nature, it was no surprise that he volunteered to raise a donation for Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper Alliance.?He wore custom shoes at the Warriors vs. Wizards game in 2018, and the proceeds from the auction were donated to support the movement.

When asked if he has ever sent the former President a pair of sneakers, he revealed he gifted the President Back 2 Back Curry 3 sneakers. It was a memento when his two years at the office came to an end. Talking about golf shoes that President Obama owns from Under Armour, Curry said, “He rocks some of the early kind of crossover shoes that we had from the court to the course”. He further added, “His game is solid for a man with his schedule. But yeah, we have a lot of fun out there.”
