Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes and TE Travis Kelce have been enjoying themselves at the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course in Stateline, Nevada. The annual charity tournament benefits social justice initiatives, coronavirus relief funds and regional Lake Tahoe non-profit organizations.
Mahomes and Kelce were grouped with Charles Barkley on Day 1. Barkley has a bit of a reputation in this tournament. In nearly half of his appearances at the American Century Championship, Barkley has finished dead last. He finished the day in 69th place on Friday, with only Demarcus Ware and Eddie George playing worse. In 2018, Barkley had 6000/1 odds to win the tournament.
Despite potential distractions from their teammate, Mahomes and Kelce finished the day tied for 46th, both shooting -3.

Mahomes and Kelce both had some standout moments on the golf course and had some moments that felt straight out of “Happy Gilmore.”
We learned that Mahomes needs to work on his ball security too.
Mahomes even challenged Chiefs superfan Rob Riggle, who is also participating in the tournament, to a friendly bet on today’s match.
