On the banks of Lake Tahoe, Nevada, the fairways of Edgewood Tahoe South golf club presented a scene of serenity Saturday. That was until the Kelce brothers took to the course.
Jason and Travis Kelce returned to the sun-soaked holes of the Stateline golf course for the second round of the American Century Championship – a celebrity golf tournament that attracts some of the biggest A-Listers across sport and entertainment.
While there was no Taylor Swift to be seen, the NFL brothers’ SWAT officers were once again in tow. But perhaps the security would have been better utilized to protect the swarms of spectators from the Kelces, not the other way round.
One spectator found himself in Travis’s firing line – albeit through no fault of his own. After a day of chugging beers, the Kansas City Chiefs star struck a man on the back of the neck with an errant shot.
The injured fan managed to laugh the incident off as the tight end signed an autograph and posed for a photo in compensation. ‘I think so,’ he answered, when Travis checked if he was okay.
The fan may have escaped unscathed but it wasn’t the first time either Kelce had flirted with disaster.

To say their tournament descended into chaos would be an understatement. Playing alongside Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, the trio shotgunned beers, received ice cream deliveries and threw a party throughout their round – which almost ended in disaster.
Football’s most famous brothers have soaked up the attention in Tahoe all week, patiently signing autographs and taking photos with fans even during their rounds.
‘I gotta figure out a way not to lose to my brother,’ Travis quipped, while performing his autograph duties.
Yet, for some spectators the siblings may have come a little too close for comfort. Both Kelces narrowly escaped leaving fans bloodied when they fired errant shots into the clamoring crowds on Saturday.
Earlier in his round, Travis, sporting a pink polo from Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red apparel line, took a drastic detour on the 15th when he found the cart path. ‘You guys signed a waiver right,’ he asked the lurking spectators – hopefully in jest.
At the next, his game unraveled further. The three-time Super Bowl winner fired his tee shot way left of the fairway, leaving his ball nestled up against the base of a tree. Someone in the crowd informed DailyMail.com that the strike had actually hit someone.
‘Oh s*** I did,’ Travis responded when he was told the same. Two holes later he did it again.
Meanwhile, Jason, sporting his signature straw hat, also took the scenic route around Edgewood, frequently missing the target. Also on the 15th, the Philadelphia Eagles legend hooked his second shot into the crowd, only to swing it back into the crowd on his rescue attempt.

Three holes later, a cop car almost fell victim to the retired center’s errant game. Jason, once again, failed to find the fairway with his ball coming to rest just behind the police vehicle.
While their playing partner Mayfield avoided the same disaster as the Kelce brothers, the same couldn’t be said for his scorecard.
The signal caller was an accomplice in their antics, with the trio sinking more beers than putts. After beating the heat with a cocktail earlier in the round, Mayfield found himself embroiled in a beer chugging contest with a fan. Like the tournament, he lost that too.
Yet that didn’t dampen their spirits. They frolicked around the golf course, launching balls into the crowd and drop kicking them with Jason and Mayfield even practicing a snap or two.
The Swifties who lined the fairways waiting, hoping, praying to catch a glimpse of Travis’s pop sensation girlfriend Swift may have had their hopes dashed but the Grammy Award winner was there in spirit.
The songstress’s hit ‘Shake It Off’ belted out across the 17th to which Travis did just that. The three-time Super Bowl winner shimmied and shook his way down the hole as the pop anthem blared out.
Their erratic play and frat bro antics were highly unsurprising given the wild bet they cooked up with each other on the eve of the tournament.

Some time between wowing the crowds with their karaoke duet Thursday night and teeing off for Friday’s opening round, the Kelces got to plotting.
Jason revealed to Access Hollywood before their first round that they would be downing beers if they struggled on the greens.
He said: ‘Travis and I always have the side bets going for sure.
‘I think right now, the bet today we talked about last night is every three putt, you got a shotgun a beer.
‘So once you miss that first one, if you’re left with a four or five footer, it’s gonna be a little nerve wracking standing over that thing.’
Despite being a fierce competitor during his NFL career, Jason also explained that he was just there ‘for the vibes’.
‘That’s what it’s all about,’ he continued.
‘That’s why everybody is here. Everybody’s here to just have a good time. All these people are here mostly to have a good time. There’s a handful of guys that actually expect to win this thing, but we all know who they are, and that’s great.
‘We’re all here for the vibes. A lot of people come out here and lend their time to interact. So it’ll be a good day. I love it.’
