Patrick Mahomes might be away from the NFL, but he’s no less busy these days. As the quarterback recovers from a torn ACL and torn LCL surgery in his left knee, his business portfolio just got an upgrade. However, this time, the cause was much more personal, one that directly ties him to his father.

“Adidas announced it’s preparing a Patrick Mahomes golf line,” Yahoo Sports reported on Instagram. “Complete details have yet to be announced, but Adidas Golf president Jeff Lienhart suggested some items from it will ‘hit the market sooner than later.”

With this, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback becomes the first non-golf Adidas athlete to launch their own golf line. But it’s still far from a marketing move.

Mahomes has been playing golf for as long as he can remember, after learning the ropes from his father.

“I really tried to get into golf,” he told Sports Illustrated. “My dad played so it’s something else I compete against him in. He is definitely better, but I did beat him when he came to Kansas City one time. That was my only time I’ve ever beat him, though.

“He was always betting on me. He would have his buddies out there, they’d hit their drives, he’d take me to the front tees and I would hit it just as far as they did. I made him a couple bucks that way.”

Now, many decades later, that same side gig is part of his daily life. In fact, the 30-year-old also listed it as one of his favorite offseason hobbies.

Every time the gridiron became a cause for worry for the quarterback, like that Super Bowl loss in 2021, Mahomes found his way back to the golf course.

“I just love to be able to go relax and be away from everything on the course,” he says.

And that’s exactly what president Lienhart thinks will make him appealing to the larger audience.

“Patrick is the tip of the spear, in terms of all the athletes we can tap into from around the brand that are in other sport categories, but have a passion for, or an interest in, golf,” he said. “It does a lot for us with the consumers that speak to these other athletes from other sports coming to the game of golf, and how cool the game of golf has become, and how relevant it has become.”

Amid his fun journey in the world of golf, Mahomes also found a way to support the underprivileged and was widely praised because of a commendable initiative.

Patrick Mahomes’ charity golf event to fuel philanthropic efforts

Patrick Mahomes hosts an annual charity golf event through his 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, a nonprofit he launched in 2019 to improve the lives of children and support health, wellness, and underserved communities. Generally known as the Aloha Golf Classic or Vegas Golf Classic, the tournament started in the early 2020s and brings together sports stars, celebrities, and supporters to raise funds and awareness for youth-focused causes.

Among the ones backing him in the initiative are Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. The Chiefs’ tight end took part in the annual 15 and the Mahomies Vegas Golf Classic Gala. He was seen attending the gala in great spirits, sitting with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes while being an active participant in the evening’s auction. He even joked with the crowd while bidding on a guitar signed by Swift, which helped raise funds for the cause.

“I’m excited to open up the event for anyone to experience it live through Whatnot,” Mahomes said back in 2023. “This event and the cause it supports is so important to me, so I’m eager to finally get the chance to bring all of my supporters along while I attempt a hole-in-one.”

Years have passed, but Mahomes’ love for golf and the charitable tournament continues to go on. While it was a measure to feel connected with his father, having his own product line is nothing but a proud moment for the family.
