NFL star Travis Kelce brought the star power to Florida this week after rubbing shoulders with Tiger Woods and Kai Trump at a star-studded TGL event.
The Kansas City star and his brother, Jason, were among the guests of honor at the SoFi Center on Tuesday to watch Woods’ Jupiter Links GC fight for a playoff spot.
Before the action began, Kelce was seen joking around with the Jupiter Links team and catching up with Woods, who is continuing his recovery from back surgery.
The star-studded atmosphere was bolstered by the presence of Woods’ girlfriend Vanessa Trump and budding golf talent Kai Trump, who were spotted cheering from the stands alongside the Kelce duo.
Just moments before the event began, Woods was seen chopping it up with Chiefs star Kelce as his team got their practice in on the giant golf simulator.
Woods was also seen giving technical tips to Jason Kelce, even critiquing the former Eagles center’s grip size during a lighthearted exchange before the contest.

‘Keep your hands up. So you move as a triangle from here to your hands,’ Woods told Kelce, as Travis Kelce looked on and joked with the Jupiter Links team.
‘So it’s putting with the big muscles. All these kids have such bigger grips for their hand size. So I have a smaller grip which allows me to have more feel on my hands.’
‘I went to the bigger grips with every club because I had no hands,’ ESPN analyst Kelce responded. He added: ‘And the more I’ve played, I like going a little bit smaller.’
Later in the night, the former Eagles star praised Woods and the TGL set-up.
‘I’ve heard from everybody how state-of-the-art and incredible the technology is, so I can’t wait to check it out firsthand,’ Jason said.
‘What Tiger and all those guys down at TGL have done is just remarkable.’
The former Eagles star and his brother were in attendance as guests to witness Woods’ Jupiter Links GC take on The Bay in a must-win battle for a playoff spot.
While the Kelce brothers provided star power in the stands, it was 23-year-old South Korean star Tom Kim who provided the theatrics on the virtual course.
With Jupiter Links trailing by one point and their season on the line, Kim stepped up to the 14th hole and delivered only the second hole-in-one in TGL history.

The wedge shot flew over the flag before the backspin kicked in, sending the ball rolling backward into the cup to ignite the Florida crowd.
The stunning moment sent the SoFi Center into pandemonium, with 50-year-old Woods seen pumping his fists and running around in celebration.
Woods and teammates Max Homa and Kevin Kisner mobbed Kim in what the young golfer later described as his first time ever being ‘tackled’ in celebration.
‘Best indoor experience ever,’ Woods remarked after the wild scene, which saw his team leapfrog The Bay to take a late lead.
