But in true Kelce fashion, he\u00a0quickly transformed from tight end to caretaker,\u00a0rushing to the man\u2019s side with genuine concern.<\/p>\n<div class=\"autors-widget\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>On the first shot at hole 16 of the\u00a0American Century Championship, a celebrity golf tournament, Kelce\u2019s golf shot went wild. The ball soared and connected with an unsuspecting spectator who was there to take in the scenes of celebrities, including Bills All-Pro quarterback\u00a0Josh Allen, actor Don Cheadle,\u00a0WWE superstar The Miz, and Stanley Cup winner Matthew Tkachuk.<\/p>\n<p>Video footage revealed the aftermath of the wayward shot. A police officer huddled around the stricken spectactor, taking their information and checking if they needed medical help.<\/p>\n<p>But Kelce didn\u2019t just move on. In a heartfelt gesture, the\u00a0back-to-back Super Bowl champion\u00a0pinpointed the fan, strolled over, kissed the injured arm, and\u00a0gently rubbed the spot\u00a0with an embrace before continuing to the next hole.<\/p>\n<p>The fan seemed to escape unscathed, prompting a wave of playful comments from fans, especially those who appeared to be Swifties. One sarcastic fan wrote on X, \u201cGoal for next year\u2026 position myself so that I can be hit by Travis\u2019s golf ball.\u201d Another added, \u201cTravis can hit me with a golf ball anytime.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-inside\">Another fan couldn\u2019t resist poking fun at Kelce\u2019s golf skills, humorously questioning, \u201cHow good can Travis possibly be at golf if he\u2019s hitting fans in the first place?\u201d After round one of the competition, Kelce is tied for 62nd place in a field of 90 with a score of -2.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1239\" src=\"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/12-4-300x200.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/12-4-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/12-4-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/12-4-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/12-4.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"caption\">Travis Kelce made sure to check on the golf fan he hit with a ball<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The American Century Championship features a special scoring system and format that sets it apart from the\u00a0PGA Tour. Their unique system hands out points for each hole based on performance, including an albatross [3 under par] earning 10 points, continuing to subtract 2 points per stroke until making it down to the dreaded double bogey, that\u2019s worth -2 points.<\/p>\n<p>Players can\u2019t tank worse than a double bogey, so even bad holes won\u2019t crush their chances of victory. The golfer with the most after three rounds prevails so that each public figure has the opportunity to create a magical moment during the broadcast.<\/p>\n<p>The stakes for the competition are sky-high, with a $750,000 purse up for grabs. The champion walks away with $150,000, while second place pockets $70,000, and third place scores $40,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travis Kelce shows true colors after hitting fan with wayward golf shot Travis Kelce\u2019s golf swing hit a spectator at the American Century Championship, but he quickly showed concern and &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1240,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[9],"class_list":["post-1237","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-travis-kelce"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1237"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1241,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1237\/revisions\/1241"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1237"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1237"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1237"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
