He should ditch the 5-iron and stick to gridiron.
Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce inadvertently struck a spectator in the head with a golf ball on the last hole of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Friday, the fourth time the Super Bowl champion has errantly walloped a fan on the course.
The 36-year-old tight end blasted his 18th-hole drive wide out of bounds, shouting “Fore” to any spectators in the vicinity, but the ball still found one woman who was hit in the head.
Kelce ran over to the woman — identified as Edenne Flinn – to apologize for the errant drive as she was receiving medical attention at a golf cart, KSBW reported.
The three-time Super Bowl champion, who was partnered up with pro golfer Keith Mitchell, was captured on video speaking with Flinn as other spectators gathered around the two, according to a TikTok post.
Flinn reassured Kelce that she was fine, but the amateur golfer signed an autograph before parting ways.
Kelce withdrew from the rest of the hole after the incident, which resulted in his team finishing with a two-day score of 10 under par.
Friday’s mishap was the third time Kelce accidentally struck a fan on the golf course
In 2024, Kelce had two wayward shots on the same day while playing at the American Century Championship in Stateline, Nevada, on Lake Tahoe.
A young female spectator in her 20s was left bloodied when a Kelce’s shot on the 16th hole struck her in the head, causing her to remain on the ground for several minutes while event staff checked her out.
Streaks of blood were visible in her hair after the chaotic moment, according to People.
Earlier in the day, Kelce had accidentally drove a ball off course that hit a fan in the arm.
In July 2025, Kelce, again playing at the American Century Championship and accidentally drove a ball into the neck of an onlooker during a booze-filled round.
The injured fan didn’t suffer any serious injuries and managed to find laughter despite the errant shot.
The 11-time Pro Bowler has been the subject of retirement rumors since the Chiefs’ season ended without a playoff appearance.
Kelce is eyeing a return to Kansas City for the 2026 season, with the team making it known they would like him back, according to NFL Network.
The 13-year veteran, who is engaged to pop star Taylor Swift, has yet to make a decision on continuing his Hall of Fame career.
