Travis Kelce is nearly all over the place involving a digital camera lately. “Saturday Evening Reside.” The White Home. The Eras Tour — and never simply within the stands.
And, now, the Lake Tahoe space for the American Century Championship — for a sixth time, a determine that makes the three-time Tremendous Bowl champion tight finish double-take when he hears it.
“Time flies while you’re having enjoyable. I didn’t know this was Yr 6 for me,” Kelce stated Friday to Golf Channel’s Kira Ok. Dixon. “Should be these karaoke contests that hold me coming again, ‘trigger it’s positively not been my golf.
“We’re gonna have some enjoyable on the market, and the group already appears to be like electrical. It’s all the time a blast out right here in Tahoe.”
Maybe it is the karaoke. Kelce adopted within the footsteps (he’s received a methods to go) of Taylor Swift on Friday afternoon, successful the ACC’s karaoke competitors and dedicating it to the pop megastar — a pair hours earlier than his brother, future NFL Corridor of Famer Jason Kelce, received the lengthy drive competitors that Travis received final 12 months. (Travis insists — ensures, really — he’s the higher golfer, although he hasn’t seen Jason play in a couple of decade, which is perhaps the purpose.)
It’s one more chapter in what the Chiefs tight finish precisely known as a “loopy offseason.”
“It’s been the funnest 12 months of my life, I can positively say that,” Kelce mirrored. “I stated that after the Tremendous Bowl once I performed my brother. Assembly my brother on the mountaintop was the height of my life, and it’s simply kinda been going up and up from there.”
Shortly after the conclusion of the ACC, although, that loopy offseason will come to an finish and Kelce can be again in enterprise mode as his Kansas Metropolis Chiefs vie for the NFL’s first ever three-peat.
It’s attainable, he says. Something’s attainable. However he is aware of all too effectively it received’t be simple.
“We’ve received the complete arsenal over there in Kansas Metropolis. You’ve gotta revamp the crew each single 12 months. You gotta re-mold the crew. Hopefully out in [Saint Joseph, Mississippi] we are able to get a head begin on that,” Kelce stated. “It’s gonna be a protracted haul if we get an opportunity to do it. However I’m simply excited to get again into the soccer world.”
Coaching camp begins for the Chiefs subsequent Saturday. However eight days is an eternity for Travis Kelce.
Any plans within the meantime? Particularly — will “I Can Do It With a Damaged Coronary heart” once more characteristic a nine-time Professional Bowler, who additionally occurs to be an American Century Championship long-drive and, now, karaoke winner?
“I can’t let something out of the bag,” Kelce laughed. “However proper now I’m in full soccer mode.
“After golf.”
