Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry knows a thing or two about clutch performances, and he made sure to congratulate Min Woo Lee after the Australian golfer's historic win at the Texas Children's Houston Open.
Taking to Instagram, Curry shared a photo of Lee holding his trophy with a simple but emphatic message.
"Let's goooooo!" he wrote.
Min Woo Lee secured his first-ever PGA Tour title, holding off fierce challenges from top-ranked Scottie Scheffler and 2019 US Open champion Gary Woodland.
Lee's final-round 3-under 67 at Memorial Park Golf Course gave him a tournament-record total of 20-under 260, enough to claim victory by one stroke.

Lee appeared to be cruising with a five-shot lead on the back nine, but the final stretch turned tense as his rivals mounted late charges.
According to CBS News, Woodland finished with a scorching 62, tying the course record, while Scheffler rattled off four straight birdies to keep the pressure on.
A crucial moment came on the 16th hole when Lee sliced his tee shot into the water, leading to his only bogey in 41 holes. With his lead cut to one shot, he remained composed, finishing with a steady par on the 18th hole.

Meanwhile, Curry's enthusiastic reaction to Lee's win wasn't just casual support-it came from someone who truly understands the grind of professional golf.
A known golf fanatic, Curry has competed in pro-am tournaments and even shot 74-74 in a Web.com Tour event, per NBA, an impressive feat for an athlete from another sport.
Curry's love for the game extends beyond playing. He has been a vocal advocate for growing the sport and has funded the Howard University golf program.
With this win, Lee not only cemented his place on the PGA Tour but also earned a spot in the Masters and several high-profile events throughout the year. His rapid rise in the golf world continues to turn heads and the support from big names like Curry adds even more excitement to his journey.
Curry, meanwhile, is balancing his golf passion with his NBA commitments. As the Warriors push for a playoff spot, the four-time champion continues to dominate on the court while keeping a close eye on the sport he loves off the hardwood.
With both Curry and Lee excelling in their respective fields, their connection through golf adds another layer to an already thrilling sports story.
