Curry misses cut at Web.com Tour but wins more on goodwill By Eddie Alinea PhilBoxing.com Mon, 13 Aug 2018  Back-to-back NBA Most Valuable Player Steph Curry missed the cut and ended up dead last at the recent Web.com Ellie Mae Classic but it didn?t matter. What mattered most was the Golden State Warriors point guard and wife Ayesha donated $25,000 through their foundation to the GoFundMe page for Web.com Tour golfer Scott Harrington after his wife, Jenn, was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. According to ESPN.com, Jenn Harrington was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma for the second time in May. Curry told reporters he spoke to Scott on Friday: "It was a good conversation this morning that I had with him, just to let him know how, obviously everybody out here on the Tour, and everybody I've talked to that knows him, says so many great things about him and his family, and are thinking about him during the tough time right now." In June, Scott announced he was going on competitive leave so he could spend more time with Jenn, who was preparing to undergo two to three months of chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant The NBA MVP of 2016 and 2017 struggled to a 16-over 86, finishing 154th and last in the field at TPC Stonebrae. When Curry shot an opening-round 71 in California on Thursday, the sky seemed the limit for the Warriors sentinel. Some thought he might even make the cut in only his second career Web.com tournament. Reality set in on Friday as Curry crawled his way at TPC Stonebrae in Hayward ? just a few miles from Oracle Arena, where he has seen much happier moments with the Warriors. Curry's performance is worse than his score last year, when he carded 74-74 to finish eight-over and tied for 148th. "I had three solid rounds, and then I finally blew up," Curry said afterwards. "I got a little bit exposed ... if you don't have the right flow, it's hard to self-correct." Click here to view a list of other articles written by Eddie Alinea.  |
