Jason Kelce Adds to the Mantle With Long Drive Championship Victory
Jason Kelce enjoyed several seasons as a future Hall-of-Fame center for the Philadelphia Eagles, winning one Super Bowl and two conference championships.
Now, he can add another trophy to the mantle as he won the Long Drive competition at the American Century Championship yesterday.
In Stateline, Nevada at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, Kelce outdueled a fine lineup of competitors by launching a drive that went 322 yards — good enough to take home the crown.
What a day with the new @Korbel1882 Long Drive champ, @JasonKelce 🥂

This year, the trophy is staying in the family. Kelce’s brother, Travis, a tight-end for the Kansas City Chiefs, won the competition last year. His drive went further than Jason’s, as the 362-yard drive from Travis was good enough to win, but it was in elevated conditions.
The brothers will play the 9:42 tee time on Friday, paired with The Miz, a WWE wrestler.
