The Kansas City Chiefs tight end opened up on the ‘New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce’ podcast about his recent visit to the US Open

Travis Kelce is breaking down the details surrounding his US Open outing with Taylor Swift!

Speaking on the New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, in an episode released Wednesday, Sept. 11,  Travis revealed that the Sept. 8 outing was his first time at a US Open tennis tournament.

“It was my first time. My second time going to a tennis match, at least a professional tennis match as big as this one,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said before explaining that he once watched Jack Sock play in Indio, Calif.

“This was a completely different world,” the athlete said of the US Open. “I looked to my left and my right and every single time I did it, I saw a familiar face. There were so many f—— people there to see the action, especially the final game, knowing that an American was in the US Open, Taylor Fritz.”

“Unfortunately, he couldn’t come away with a win but it was still fun to see two of the top dogs in the game go at it for a couple hours,” Travis continued of the match, which saw Italy’s Jannik Sinner win his first US Open title.

Responding to Jason’s question about what a large live tennis match is like, the younger brother replied, “It’s very quiet and you know us, when it’s very quiet, we want to say something.”

“I’m not a quiet person, never been a quiet person,” Travis said as Jason laughed. “I’ve always been the kid at the back of the class when it gets quiet, like say something smart or say something funny or at least try and get a rise out of people.”

He added, “So the entire time I wanted to heckle the Italian Sinner, the number one player in the world.”

Travis explained that he wanted to get into Sinner’s head “to help my guy Fritzy out.”

“But I played it cool, I played it respectful,” he said, adding that he’s sure if he heckled the star “like the guy did in Happy Gilmore,” he would have probably been asked to leave.

Travis went on to say that he “dressed the part, acted the part” and was “very quiet except for during intermissions when they were playing music.”

“That was about the only time I was really showing my personality,” he said.

At Sunday’s event, Travis and Swift were seen dancing to the 2003 song “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness.

Sporting a Gucci bucket hat with a Gucci cardigan, polo and shorts, Travis stood closely by Swift and sang along to the words as they moved to the tune.

At one point, Swift – who was dressed in a Zimmermann Halliday Scallop Midi Dress – could be seen trying to help her man tackle his hat hair after taking his Gucci accessory off.

Meanwhile, speaking on his podcast, Travis addressed the fact that fans spotted him watching football during the US Open.

“Well Jason, when you get something like Sunday ticket on YouTube TV, you can watch any game you want. You can actually watch up to four games at once,” he said.

“The first Sunday of the NFL season, you think I was gonna miss the 1 o’clock start?” Travis added.
