NBA star and avid golfer Stephen Curry has announced the return of his ‘Underrated’ European Tour tournament.
The second annual Underrated Golf European Tour will begin at the Foxhills Golf Club in England from May 28-30, before heading to the Fairmont St. Andrews in August.
The event, sponsored by United Airlines, returns after its debut in 2022 and provides an unparalleled platform for up-and-coming junior golfers from across Europe to showcase their talent on a global stage.
Following the announcement, the Golden State Warriors hero said he is excited to offer young golfers a chance to hone their talents once more.
‘I’m thrilled to see the Underrated Golf European Tour return for its second year and to partner with United Airlines as our presenting sponsor,’ said Stephen Curry.
‘The goal of this tour is to offer incredible opportunities to emerging golfers, allowing them to compete and develop their skills in some of the most historic and beautiful locations in the world.

‘I’m excited to see the talent that will emerge from this tour and to continue to make golf a more inclusive and accessible sport.’
As the returning presenting sponsor for the event, United Airlines will continue to support the journeys of the golfers as they fly to London, Edinburgh, and beyond in pursuit of their ambitions.
‘We’re proud to continue partnering with Stephen Curry in presenting the Underrated Golf European Tour,’ said Jennifer Entenman, United’s Managing Director of Global Sponsorships.
‘Stephen’s continued commitment to creating opportunities for aspiring athletes aligns perfectly with United’s brand ethos of Good Leads the Way. Along with the fact that London is United’s largest market outside the United States, this continued partnership makes perfect sense for us.
‘We look forward to continuing our support of Underrated Golf’s mission in the United Kingdom and Europe, as well as here in the States.’
Curry launched his own ‘Underrated’ golf tour in 2022 with the aim of making the game more diverse.
As in the inaugural tour, the boy and girl winners of both London and Scotland tournaments will earn the opportunity to travel to the United States to compete in the prestigious Curry Cup, the fourth annual competition hosted by Curry.
