Austin realizes the ratings of Paris to win the golf tournament in the American championship of the century
It is well known that when the Los Angeles Lakers goalkeeper Austin Reaves does not train, his favorite hobby is golf. Reaves spoke several times about his love for golf and spend as much time as possible on the course, even by participating in the celebrity golf tournament of the American Century championship last year.
While he entered with the third highest chances of winning, Reaves would end on an equal place in the 13th place with the temple of renown of the NBA Ray Allen. It was the first appearance of Reaves in the tournament, so it’s probably the nerves a little, but now he is about to participate in the tournament and hopes for a better finish this time.
However, his presentation of last year apparently harmed his chances in this year’s tournament, because he currently has the eighth blords to approach +1600, via Jeff Sherman of Golf Costs:
American Century Championship Golf
Mardy Fish 7/2
Joe Pavelski 4/1
Stephen Curry 9/2
Tony Romo 9/2
John Smoltz 8/1
Mark Mulder 8/1
Annika Sorenstam 10/1
Austin Reaves 16/1
Derek Lowe 20/1
Taylor Twellman 30/1
Black Vinny 40/1
Tim Simons 500/1
Charles Barkley 10,000/1– Jeff Sherman (@golfodds) July 5, 2025
Many of them ahead of Reaves on the list of ratings are former winners, so the Lakers goalkeeper has work to do if he plans to go out. The former tennis player and defending champion Mardy Fish is a double winner, the superstar of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry, won the tournament in 2023, the former Dallas Cowboys quarter-rear, Tony Romo, won his third championship the previous year in 2022.
Golf has long been a passion for Reaves and there is no doubt that it is motivated to make a great performance in the tournament this year. The Lakers goalkeeper is extremely competitive, so he will do everything possible to get out as he does when he adapts for purple and gold.
This year’s event should take place from July 9 to 13 in Lake Tahoe, as always. The first round will start on Friday July 11 and will be a television on Peacock then NBC on Saturday and Sunday.
LeBron James des Lakers also picked up golf as a hobby
Perhaps Austin Reaves may soon have a new partner on the golf course while the Lakers superstar, LeBron James, recently published videos on social networks showing the links and revealing that he recently took the pastime.
James noted that he still had a long way to go, but that he appreciates the process and had a good time on the course.
