Travis Kelce reacts to comment about Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce had a brief reaction when a fan referenced Taylor Swift during a recent appearance at a celebrity golf tournament.
On July 12, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end was pacing across the South Lake Tahoe course, getting ready for the American Century Championship in Nevada, when someone in the crowd shouted, “You have the best girlfriend in the world. You got it!” Without hesitation, Kelce smiled and replied, “Good point!”
The moment was captured in a video later posted on X (formerly Twitter) by a fan. Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce had kicked off the first day of the tournament just one day earlier, on Friday, July 11.
The moment came just weeks after Kelce addressed ongoing media speculation about his and Swift’s public appearances. In a recent appearance on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast, Kelce pushed back against the claims that their outings are to “seek attention.” He said, “It gets thrown out there, like we’re trying to seek attention every now and then. We’re just enjoying life and having fun, going to hockey games.” Kelce also shared that he is introducing Swift to more sports.
While their outings have made headlines, Kelce admitted that being constantly followed by photographers still catches him off guard. He said, “That’s probably the craziest part. Like I’m just playing golf and all of a sudden in the trees there’s a f—— guy with a camera.”
