Stephen Curry has plenty of experience holding trophies - you know, with the three NBA titles and back-to-back MVP awards - so it makes sense he looked like a natural handling one of the most prestigious pieces of hardware in golf, the U.S. Open trophy.
The U.S. Open media tour rolled through the Bay Area on Monday ahead of next year’s event at Pebble Beach, and like most visitors to Northern California, the trophy sought out the Golden State Warriors point guard for a picture.
Curry - white gloves and all - appeared more than happy to oblige.

Despite playing in the Web.com Tour’s Ellie Mae Classic the last two years, Curry will probably never lift the U.S. Open trophy as a major champion, but the two will always have this picture.
