Travis Kelce had a couple shots get away from him during his charity golf game Friday ... and, one left a woman bloodied, video obtained by TMZ shows.

The video captures the aftermath of the incident ... with eyewitnesses telling TMZ Travis launched a shot on the 16th fairway that ended up hurtling toward onlookers -- before smacking a woman in the side of the head.

Check out the clip ... Travis hangs out near the group while the woman's sitting on the ground -- with the person next to her holding a cloth against her head to slow the blood flow.

4:16 PM PT -- The two journalists -- who work for Starcade Media -- just released a statement on the matter ... insisting they did not mean to rile up Jerry Rice with their Chiefs-related question.

The guys said on their Facebook page they merely wanted to know if Kansas City's 2024 wideout group "had improved enough to continue winning at a high level" ... and nothing more.

"We meant absolutely no disrespect to Jerry or the 49ers when asking this question," they said. They added that they'd love the opportunity to discuss things further with the Hall of Famer.

Travis Kelce's golf round on Friday didn't get off to the best start -- he nailed a man with an errant shot ... but he did his best to try to make up for it, planting a big ole smooch right on the guy's owie!

The hilarious scene went down in Lake Tahoe ... just after Kelce had teed off at the famed American Century Championship celeb golf tournament.

Kelce was looking to get on the green with his approach shot ... but he didn't catch it flush -- and instead, drilled a dude in the arm who was standing by the ropes.

It didn't take long for the biggest names in the sports and entertainment world to ditch the fancy gowns and stuffy suits for some casual cocktail dresses and party pants for Serena Williams' 2024 ESPY Awards after-party at Delilah in West Hollywood.

The Jimmy V Awards should have been passed out to these Hollywood hotties who turned heads while letting loose. Serena owned the crowd and got a shot with Eugenie Bouchard ... while America's sweetheart Livvy Dunne worked the room in a little black dress.

Lindsey Vonn skipped the slopes to slalom through the stars of the L.A. nightclub ... while Ciara and Vanessa Bryant cozied up on the iconic pink booths for a one-on-one and a selfie.

Nikki Glaser came out swinging at the ESPY Awards ... cracking a ton of jokes at several athletes' expense -- and Scottie Scheffler's legal troubles were not off-limits.

The comedian brought out the big guns at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles while presenting the award for Best Male Athlete to "peak athletes who push their bodies to the limit and also a golfer."

She then apologizes to the golfer in question -- Scottie Scheffler -- saying she knows it's difficult to putt, chip and drive ... over a cop's leg.

Aaron Rodgers might have been M.I.A. during the Jets' mandatory minicamp ... but when one crying New York fan needed him the most Wednesday -- he was right there to lend him a hug!!!

The four-time NFL MVP was on the links in Lake Tahoe, taking part in a practice round for the famed American Century Championship. While on the course, Rodgers ran into a fan who wasn't looking for an autograph ... but for him to bring his favorite team the Lombardi Trophy.

"I just want a Super Bowl, Aaron," the weeping man told the signal-caller. "Please!"

Donald Trump and Joe Biden talked the talk about golf at their debate last month ... but No. 45 now wants the two to swing the swing, officially challenging POTUS to an 18-hole match.

Trump dared Biden to tee it up with him while riling up a packed house at his Doral golf course in Miami on Tuesday.

Trump told the audience he wanted to debate Biden again -- and then, as he did during their first verbal sparring session back on June 27, he brought up their golf games.

Justin Timberlake isn't letting his drunk driving arrest get in the way of his business aspirations ... He's reportedly opening a new saloon in Scotland with Tiger Woods!

According to Billboard ... Justin and Tiger – who's also had a past DUI arrest – are partnering to turn the New Picture House Cinema into a T-Squared Social sports bar in the historic Scottish town of St. Andrews.

The singer/actor and the golf great first opened T-Squared in New York City – and it was so popular the pair decided to expand the operation overseas to Scotland.

Nelly Korda -- arguably the best golfer on the planet -- has just withdrawn from a tournament in England after she says she was bitten by a dog.

Korda said the incident happened this past Saturday while she was in Seattle. She did not say where the dog nipped her -- but the damage was apparently so bad, it will force her out of the Aramco Team Series tournament that was slated to go down from July 3-5.

"[I] need time to receive treatment and recover fully," the 25-year-old said. "I apologize to the LET, the sponsors, and my fans for my absence."

Foreign policy, social security and climate change all took a back seat to golf on Thursday night -- as Donald Trump and Joe Biden put politics aside for a few moments to trash-talk each other's skills on the links.

It all went down after No. 45 and No. 46 were asked about how they believe their bodies and minds would hold up over the next four years if they were elected the next president of the United States.

Trump stated he had no worries -- pointing out that he recently won two club championships as evidence. He then stated there's no way Biden could do that, adding, "He can't hit a ball 50 yards!"

The Florida Panthers won their first-ever Stanley Cup on Monday night, and perhaps nobody was happier to see it than golf star Brooks Koepka, who celebrated the dub with a boozy night in Nashville!!

Matthew Tkachuk, Aleksander Barkov and Sergei Bobrovsky got the job done in Sunrise ... beating the Edmonton Oilers in Game 7 of the Final, 2-1 -- and while Koepka couldn't be there in person, he certainly didn't let the moment pass by quietly while he was out in Tennessee.

Watching from a bar in the Music City, Koepka went crazy as soon as the clock hit 0:00 on the Panthers' season.

The U.S. Open teed off a week ago, but champ Bryson DeChambeau's living it up like he just sank the tourney-winning putt ... partying, trophy in hand, in downtown Nashville -- and it's awesome!

The 30-year-old champ was seen walking the streets of Tennessee's capital with the U.S. Open trophy ... as Bryson and his new hardware got in line to enter a bar on Broadway.

It is unclear if Bryson was meeting up with friends, family, or a mix of both ... but the group linked up outside Jason Aldean's Kitchen and Rooftop Bar -- which opened on the Broadway strip back in 2018.

Rory McIlroy appears to be getting over his U.S. Open loss with the help of his family and turtles ... the star golfer was seen hitting up a Marinelife center with his wife and daughter on Monday -- roughly 24 hours after his heartbreaking defeat at Pinehurst.

McIlroy was spotted leaving the Loggerhead sanctuary in Juno Beach, FL. with his fam by his side -- and while it seems they had a good day looking at sea creatures ... it's not hard to see the 35-year-old athlete still appears to be reeling from his Sunday meltdown.

Check out some footage of the McIlroys as they left their day date by the ocean ... while Mom and Daughter looked content holding some goodies from the building, McIlory was noticeably skulking feet behind.

Jason Kelce might have quit football, but he clearly hasn't retired from drinking yet ... as the former Eagles star was seen crushing beers with fans at a charity golf event on Monday morning.

Kelce shotgunned the cold ones with the guys while out at Manufacturers Golf & Country Club in Pennsylvania ... just before he hit the course to try to raise some funds for a good cause.

You can see the ex-Philadelphia offensive lineman and some diehard Eagles fanatics grabbed what appeared to be lime-flavored Garage Beers ... and then went to town.

Jeff Ross says Tom Brady really is the GOAT for letting millions of people have a laugh at his expense ... telling TMZ Sports the future Hall of Famer deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for being such a good sport during his roast last month.

We caught up with "The RoastMaster General" out at LAX this week ... and tried to ask who he'd love to target next, considering Netflix's "Roast Of Tom Brady" was such a massive success.

But, Ross explained it's going to be tough to get any celeb to step up to the plate after seeing what happened to Brady ... which led him to praise the guy for taking everything on the chin.

Rory McIlroy has seemingly called off his divorce ... his attorney filed a notice of voluntary dismissal on his behalf on Tuesday -- and the case has now been closed.

It's not clear yet why the golf star had the apparent change of heart ... we've reached out to his lawyer, Thomas Sasser, for comment -- but so far, no word back yet.

The 35-year-old had just opened the case in Florida on May 13 ... indicating he was ready to split with his wife, Erica Stoll, after seven years of marriage.
