Three-time NBA champion Stephen Curry will step back inside the ropes on the Web.com Tour next week.

For the second year in a row, Curry has been granted a sponsor's exemption into the field at the Ellie Mae Classic outside San Francisco.

Curry impressed in his Web.com debut last year, recording consectuive rounds of 4-over 74.

“The players on the Web.com Tour welcomed me with open arms in 2017, and it was an amazing experience to play with up-and-coming PGA Tour stars inside the ropes at TPC Stonebrae,” Curry said in a statement.

“I have been fortunate to be a member of an incredible team in the Golden State Warriors, and I was elated to feel that same level of camaraderie onsite last year. Golf is a game that has provided wonderful experiences in my life, and I am excited to return to the Ellie Mae Classic in August.”

Curry's Warriors swept LeBron James's Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals last month, with Curry notably posting rounds of 71-71 during the four-game series.

The two-time league MVP is currently listed as a 0.0 handicap, playing out of Cal Club.

Some guys are just naturally gifted when it comes to sports, Wardell Stephen Curry II is one of those guys. Consistent jump shot in .02 seconds? Check. 3 NBA Championships? Check. Multiple MVP's? Check. 0.0 handicap and Web.com Tour player? Check. Unreal.
