Travis Kelce helps bleeding fan after hitting her with golf ball at celebrity event
A female attendee was left bloody and needing medical assistance at a celebrity golf tournament on Friday, after catching a stray shot from Travis Kelce right to the back of her head.
Video from the aftermath, obtained by TMZ, shows the NFL superstar comforting the woman and waiting with her until medics arrived.
She could be seen sitting on the ground as another person held a cloth to her head to slow the bleeding.
The injured woman was eventually helped into a golf cart and driven away by paramedics, still clutching the back of her head — but not before she was able to briefly smile for a picture with the Super Bowl champ.
The incident occurred on the 16th fairway at the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship in Stateline, Nevada. While people were still gathered around the injured woman, another errant golf ball came whirling overheard, nearly missing the group.
Multiple people can be heard in the video shouting in fear, as the Kansas City Chiefs tight end says the similarly wild shot came from his brother, Jason.
It appeared to be a rough day on the course for the Kelce brothers. Earlier in the tournament, Travis hit a man in the arm with one of his golf shots and was later captured on video playfully kissing the man’s injury.
While Travis appeared more serious about the woman’s head injury, he ultimately moved on and continued his game, prompting laughter from the crowd when he announced, “I’m gonna say you guys should probably move out of the way.”
