Even at a fun golf event that too years ago, he couldn\u2019t catch a break, and this time it shows that the pressure didn\u2019t come from a pass rush, but from a frustrated dad.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patrick Mahomes (Photo via X) Patrick Mahomes just wanted to enjoy a round of golf.
