Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has been one of the most talented basketball players of this generation. But it turns out, basketball is far from the only sport that he excels at, impressing in a celebrity golf tournament with an insane hole-in-one that has captured the sports world.
Curry is taking part in the American Century Championship this weekend, and had already impressed a great deal coming into Round 2 of the event on Saturday.
He finished Round 1 on Friday as the tournament leader, and had quite a few highlights in the round, the most impressive being a ridiculous putt that any pro golfer would be proud of making.

That putt is obviously hard for any golfer to top, but he did just that by accomplishing what every golfer dreams of, making a hole-in-one.
Curry stepped to hole No. 7, a Par 3 hole, and proceeded to hit it right at the pin as the ball made one hop and went right in the bottom of the cup.

Steph Curry has been an avid golf fan for years.
He plays constantly during the NBA offseason, invests in Tiger Woods’ new venture, and has his own league for underrepresented youth golfers.

That shot should certainly help Curry build on his lead in the tournament. More importantly, it is likely a moment that he will remember for the rest of his life.
