Steph Curry Reacts to Big Win at Underrated Golf Tour Event originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
One day after Morgan Riley’s breakthrough victory at Eisenhower Golf Course, NBA superstar Stephen Curry used his platform to shine a spotlight on the rising golfer’s achievement.
The storybook moment unfolded at the Air Force Academy’s Eisenhower layout, where Riley carded a two-day total of 139 (five under par) in swirling winds and intermittent downpours.
It marked his first title on the Underrated Golf Tour, which was founded by Curry in 2022 alongside former pro Will Lowery to remove barriers for junior golfers from diverse backgrounds.
Curry shared the post from Underrated Golf Tour on his own Instagram account.
While Riley had a solid opening round of 71, it was his final-round 68 to secure a two-stroke lead that stole the show.
A native of Raleigh, North Carolina, Riley is part of the Class of 2025 and carries a decorated amateur resume into the professional ranks.
He graduated high school with a Harvard University letter of intent, having reached an AJGA ranking as high as No. 74 nationally, with three top-five finishes in 2023 and two top-10 AJGA career finishes as of 2025.
Curry, a self-described “golf junkie,” played golf in high school and regularly participates in celebrity golf tournaments. In July 2023, he won the American Century Championship, an annual celebrity golf tournament in Nevada. He’s also famously played with former President Barack Obama.
As the UGT heads next to French Lick Resort in Indiana from July 2–4, all eyes will be on Riley to see if he can parlay this momentum into back-to-back titles.
