Andre Iguodala jokes he bet $1M on Steph Curry to win golf tournament

Steph Curry is playing in the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe this weekend.

The Warriors superstar -- who will be making his eighth appearance at the event -- finished in fourth place in 2013 and 2017. 

It looks like his former Golden State teammate, Andre Iguodala, is confident that Curry will win it all this time around.

No pressure, Steph.

The two-time NBA MVP placed seventh last year, but Curry did win the personal bet he had with his dad.

Steph, Dell and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will tee off in the first round Friday at 12:05 p.m. PT. Iguodala -- who played last year and in 2016 -- will not be in attendance.

In case you forgot, Curry and Iguodala checked an item of their bucket lists when they played a round of golf together at Augusta National on Feb. 23, 2016.

As the Associated Press wrote over four years ago: "The round was a championship reward from Warriors coach Steve Kerr, who promised (them) that if Golden State won the title (in 2015) he would use his connections and get them on the storied course. During the on-court celebration in Cleveland after Golden State wrapped up the championship, Iguodala screamed at Curry, 'We're going to Augusta!' "

Oh, the memories.
