During his game with Bryson DeChambeau in the latest episode of Break 50, Stephen Curry revealed the kind of putter he is and his process before taking the shot. He shared (4:18 onwards):

"So, I'm usually in like the vernacular ball, cup, edge. But then in terms of looking at speed first. I'm usually a die putter. So, I'm kind of looking at max line to kind of drip it in."

"And for me, like that feels like just it's outside the hole. Yeah. Yeah. It's right about here. Yeah. and match the line and speed right quick," he added.

Stephen Curry went on to card several eagles and birdies across 18 holes during the match. The duo wrapped up the game with a 23-under par score, i.e., breaking 50 at the Par 72 golf course. Bryson DeChambeau shared that it was the first time the 'Break 50' was actually achieved in the series.

DeChambeau also mentioned that the twosome match was a practice for him ahead of the 45th Ryder Cup, meaning the video was shot prior to the biennial team event. He was a part of the U.S. team at the Bethpage event, where he significantly contributed to the team's score. However, Team Europe claimed a 2-point win over the host team.
