Travis Kelce hits man with rogue golf sH๏τ — then kisses victim’s arm in apology
Travis Kelce used a real hands-on approach while apologizing to a fan who was hit in the arm by one of his rogue golf sH๏τs on Friday.
The Kansas City Chiefs player accidentally hit one of the bystanders in the crowd with an approach sH๏τ gone awry as he attempted his first hole during the American Century Championship in South Lake Tahoe, Nev.
Video from the incident then showed Kelce walking up to the fan and kissing his arm as an apology for the mistake.
An eyewitness at the event tells Page Six exclusively that Kelce was in high spirits when he started competing in the tournament — and even threw some friendly jabs at his brother, Jason Kelce, who also competed on Friday.
“As Jason was preparing to hit one sH๏τ, Travis was ‘shushing’ the crowd with his finger over his lips and jokingly telling the crowd to be extra quiet – ‘because he needs all the help he can get!’” the insider told us.
The NFL player, who was recently named the No. 1 tight end in the league, got an early start as he hit the course early Friday morning after ditching the 2024 ESPYs for a night of karaoke on Thursday.
Both Travis and his teammate Harrison Butker were the subjects of shady comments at last night’s ceremony as host Serena Williams cracked jokes about the two footballers during her opening monologue.
“This year, Patrick Mahomes and Taylor Swift’s boyfriend won a Super Bowl,” she joked of Travis.
“Travis and Taylor reportedly spent $100,000 a day on their romance. That’s a lot of money. That’s what I’ve been told Jaylen Brown spends on his beard,” she joked of the Boston Celtics shooting guard,” Williams continued to laughs from the audience inside Los Angeles’ Dolby Theater.
Jason also recently commented on his brother’s whirlwind romance with Taylor Swift, telling Access Hollywood on Thursday that Travis and the “Blank Space” singer are “in a really, really good spot right now.”
“I’m just happy for him and happy for everything him and Taylor are doing over across the pond,” he added, referring to Travis’ attendance at several of the singer’s European Eras Tour shows.
Jason also attended Swift’s Eras Tour show in London last month.
