A young golf fan and player named Carson McKee had a special experience at the WM Phoenix Open on February 4. He had the opportunity to meet Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and two-time Masters winner Scottie Scheffler through the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Carson, aged 12, was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at just two weeks old. During the event, he even got to take a putt for Scheffler, 29, and had a chance to ask questions to both athletes.

At the event, Carson asked Kelce, 36, about his best card, and Kelce humorously responded about his rookie card. He also inquired Scheffler about his favorite club, to which Scheffler joked and shared his preference for the lob wedge.

Both Kelce and Scheffler seemed to enjoy their time with Carson at the event. Kelce complimented Carson on his outfit, which included a WM hat and a tournament-branded shirt.
