While both these legends hold several insane records between them, they even have a passion that is common between them – golf. We need not mention how important is golf to Curry and MJ. Both, in their pastime, spend numerous hours on the golf course.
Stephen Curry disclosed what he learned about Michael Jordan after spending time at the 2021 Ryder Cup
Back in September 2021, Chef Curry and His Airness were two of the 40,000 golf enthusiasts present at the Ryder Cup. The two even got together and spoke to each other about both sports.
Days later, during the 2021 Media Day, Curry went on to reveal how he was glad MJ was a psychopath about golf just like Wardell was. The Baby-Faced Assassin said:
“One, I’m not alone in being a psychopath about golf,” Curry said. “He might have me beat, for sure.”
Steph then went on to talk about Jordan’s famous competitive spirit.
“Just that competitive spirit never dies. The same killer instinct he had as a player and in business has translated into his presence around like a Ryder Cup team and the players and captains. That spirit that made him who he is while he was playing basketball permeates everything in life. That’s a cool kind of concept.
“He gives everything he does his all. He wants to win everything. It’s not just talk. It’s how he lives.”
Well, we can’t see MJ and Steph lace up and face each other on the basketball court. However, the two should definitely give the fans a treat by battling it out on the 9-hole course.
