Travis Kelce chats with Kai at golf event as Trump’s Taylor Swift comments draw attention

PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA: NFL star Travis Kelce spent part of his offseason enjoying a different sport when he attended a golf event in Florida alongside his brother Jason Kelce.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was seen interacting with several guests during the event on Tuesday, March 3, including Kai Trump, the granddaughter of Donald Trump.

Kelce attended the match between Jupiter Links GC and The Bay Golf Club at the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens. The event drew a number of high-profile attendees, including legendary golfer Tiger Woods, his girlfriend Vanessa Trump, and her daughter Kai Trump, who is known for her interest in golf.

The event brought together several well-known names from sports and entertainment. Travis Kelce and his older brother Jason Kelce were spotted sitting in the stands before later stepping onto the turf.

At one point, the brothers greeted Tiger Woods, who was also present at the venue as the match unfolded between Jupiter Links GC and The Bay Golf Club.

The Kelce brothers also tried out the TGL golf setup, an indoor technology-driven golf league format used during the event. They later addressed the crowd gathered at the SoFi Center, drawing cheers from attendees who had come to watch the match.

Photos and clips from the event quickly began circulating online, showing Travis mingling with other guests and spending time around the playing area.

One of the moments that caught attention online was a brief interaction between Travis Kelce and Kai Trump, the 18-year-old daughter of Vanessa Trump and Donald Trump Jr.

In a video shared on social media by Tyler Boronski, the Kansas City Chiefs star was seen chatting casually with Kai while standing on the turf during the event.

Kai, who is known to be an avid golfer, was also spotted in the crowd earlier in the evening alongside her mother.

The two were seen cheering for Tiger Woods as the match progressed.

The golf event offered a relaxed atmosphere where athletes, guests, and fans moved around the venue freely, which is how the interaction between Kelce and Kai appeared to take place.

While the clip was brief, it quickly made the rounds online as fans noted the crossover between the NFL star and members of the Trump family at the event.

Trump’s past remarks about Taylor Swift resurface

Kelce’s interaction with Kai Trump comes as Donald Trump has previously spoken out about the NFL star’s fiancée, pop star Taylor Swift.

During the 2024 presidential campaign, Trump initially shared AI-generated images that appeared to show Swift endorsing him. The images circulated online before the singer later publicly endorsed Kamala Harris.

Kelce himself has largely stayed quiet about politics and has not publicly shared his political preferences.

Meanwhile, the golf event also highlighted another connection between the Trump family and the sports world. Vanessa Trump, who attended the event with Kai, has been in a relationship with Tiger Woods since 2025.

The couple celebrated Woods’ 50th birthday in January, with Kai also present for the occasion.
