“It’s been awesome — It’s been a lot of fun,” Mahomes said. “I wish I played better the first two days, but it’s been a lot of fun and I look forward to being back.”

The Super Bowl MVP added, “I’m going to try to get better.It’s fun, obviously it’s challenging, but it’s one activity I can play (under his contract that the Chiefs allow). I’m going to be out there on the course more often.”

“It’s going to take a mindset of getting better every day,” Mahomes told NBC Sports. “It’s a process. It’s one day at a time. We understand that. We got great leaders on the team, and we’re going to go out there and do our best to make a run at it.”

The tournament is a 54-hole modified Stableford format that features some of sport’s and entertainment’s celebrities and distributes an estimated $600,000 in prize money to charities supporting social justice reform and COVID-19 relief efforts, according to tournament organizers.
