Travis Kelce Smacks Female Fan in Head with Golf Ball Again

The Incident

According to Josh Copitch of KSBW, Kelce’s shot struck a female spectator named Edenne Flinn directly in the head. Video footage of Kelce rushing over to check on her went viral on TikTok.

Flinn appeared to be okay and reportedly even got an autograph from the All-Pro tight end afterward.

The Pattern

During a 2024 tournament in Lake Tahoe, his shot accidentally hit a different female spectator in the back of the head. She also avoided serious injury.

Two years. Two tournaments. Two women. One very specific recurring accident.

The Context

Kelce was competing alongside celebrities including ex-Pro Bowl quarterback Alex Smith, Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith, and country music star Jake Owen.

The Pebble Beach Pro-Am is known for its relaxed atmosphere and celebrity pairings less so for head injuries.

The Bigger Question

Kelce, 36, has yet to announce whether he’ll return for the 2026 NFL season. He finished last year with 76 receptions for 851 yards and five touchdown solid numbers, but a step back from his peak production.

Fans have been waiting weeks for a retirement decision.

The Takeaway

Edenne Flinn walked away with a story, an autograph, and presumably a headache. Kelce walked away with another entry in his growing collection of “times I accidentally hit a woman with a golf ball” anecdotes.

The NFL’s offseason is officially underway.
