Travis Kelce aimed a cheeky gesture at fans on Friday as he played golf in North Carolina with Patrick Mahomes while girlfriend Taylor Swift continues to deal with a crisis.
The Kansas City Chiefs star is enjoying some much-needed downtime after the grind of another NFL season, which ended in Super Bowl heartbreak last month.
Kelce fled to Pinehurst, the iconic golf course that has hosted major championships in the past, to play a round with Chiefs teammate and best friend Mahomes.
Word quickly spread in the area surrounding Pinehurst that the NFL duo were in town and a large group of fans gathered to watch.
As the crowd formed around one green to watch them play, a joking Kelce decided to bend over and show off his butt in front of the cameras.
A keen golfer, Kelce nailed a putt in front of the supporters which prompted huge cheers.

Kelce was later filmed speaking to some younger fans by the clubhouse before he headed inside.
It comes after DailyMail.com exclusively reported last week that Swift, 35, was ‘in hiding’, holed up with Kelce and cutting contact with many of her closest friends.
According to our source, this battening down of hatches is by design — as she tries to avoid being further dragged into the vicious legal battle between former best friend Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. (Swift has been mentioned in legal filings and has apparently been left feeling ‘used’ by Lively).
And then there’s the even more devastating fallout surrounding the custody battle over Swift’s godson – actress Jaime King’s son, Leo Thames.
Kelce definitely needs to get some practice in on the golf course.
It was announced earlier this week that Travis and brother Jason will once again play in the American Century Championship this summer – one year after the Chiefs icon accidentally struck a fan with a golf ball.
The Kelce brothers both competed in the celebrity golf tournament last year, joining the likes of Aaron Rodgers, Charles Barkley and Miles Teller over in Lake Tahoe.
And less than four months out from the 2025 edition, the ACC confirmed that Travis and Jason are heading back there this summer to take part again.

Along with a video of the pair on the course, the ACC wrote on Instagram: ‘Time to get pumped: the Kelce brothers, Travis and Jason, are back in town for the tournament this year!’
Travis will be hoping for better fortunes this time around after finishing down in 63rd place out of 90 and leaving a spectator bloodied when he accidentally hit them in the crowd.
The three-time Super Bowl winner was on the 16th hole at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course when his drive struck 37-year-old woman Katie Hauss in the back of the head. One eyewitness told PEOPLE that streaks of blood could be seen in her blonde hair.
While his younger brother didn’t exactly cover himself in glory on -10, Jason finished the championship fourth from bottom in the standings on -51.
