Stephen Curry is widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time. For years, his unparalleled shooting touch has continued to enchant the spectators. The point guard has won four NBA championships and is still functioning smoothly.

Curry is presently enjoying his off-season getaway. The human sniper is frequently spotted on the golf course. He recently competed in the ACC Celebrity Golf Championship Tournament. It’s fair to say he didn’t shy away from captivating the crowd there as well.

Interestingly, Stephen Curry has also played golf with Formula 1 great Lewis Hamilton. The two titans met in 2017 in China to play some rounds of golf. However, the GSW ace had to overcome an unexpected twist in the game. Curry had to attempt his shot while wearing Hamilton’s F1 helmet.

Having a helmet on, of course, is strongly recommended in the exhilarating realm of motorsport. However, seeing someone don one on a golf course is an odd and amusing sight. A number of people can be heard motivating Curry while also chuckling at the strange sight in the clip.

Curry eventually attempted the shot. He barely made contact with the ball. In fact, his shot brushed against the grass. The 4-time NBA champion prepared for another shot, this time without Hamilton’s helmet. Curry showed off his skills with the golf club as he executed an impressive strike.

Lewis Hamilton picked LeBron James over Stephen Curry as the better player

Despite having a terrific day out on the golf course with Stephen Curry, Lewis Hamilton believes LeBron James is the superior basketball player.

Hamilton played “You Have To Answer” in a video posted by ESPN in 2020. He was required to choose the better player between Curry and James, which left him in an awkward situation.

Hamilton hesitated for a moment, but the basketball fan within him ultimately spoke up. He couldn’t help but express his affection for LeBron James. The two NBA legends have won several accolades and have been a major influence on the game today. Hamilton, though, still prefers the Lakers superstar over Curry.
