Obama golfs with Stephen Curry, Jordan Spieth

Former President Obama this weekend golfed with basketball star Stephen Curry and golfer Jordan Spieth, Politico reported.

The three were also joined by Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank during their round in Dallas. Both Curry and Spieth are Under Armour-sponsored athletes.

Obama visited Dallas after attending on Saturday the One America Appeal benefit concert for hurricane victims.

During that event, Obama said he “could not be prouder” of Americans for their response to help victims of the recent hurricanes that struck the U.S.

“All of us on this stage here tonight could not be prouder of the response of Americans,” Obama said. “When they see their neighbors and they see their friends, they see strangers in need, Americans step up.”

“And as heartbreaking as the tragedies that took place here in Texas and in Florida, in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands have been, what we’ve also seen is the spirit of America at its best: When ordinary people step up and do extraordinary things,” he said.

Obama also thanked former presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush for their work in the relief efforts.
