Remarkable Daily Mail images show a black bear lounging up in a tree just meters from the Kelce brothers as they played their final round of the American Century Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Travis and Jason played alongside actor Miles Teller<\/a> on Sunday as part of a star-studded field that brought 90 celebrities to the shores of Lake Tahoe.<\/p>\n

During Friday’s first round, a bear wandered past the brothers<\/a> – on the other side of a metal fence – as they prepared to take a tee shot.<\/p>\n

Just a couple of days later, the brothers took on hole No 8 hole at Edgewood Tahoe, unaware that they had another spectator watching from up high.<\/p>\n

Hordes of fans followed the two NFL legends around the course but exclusive pictures show the bear in the branches of a tree near the eighth fairway.<\/p>\n

It was spotted by some spectators but not – it appeared – by either the Kelces or Teller. Travis made a par on hole no 8, while his older brother made a double-bogey six.<\/p>\n

During the Kelces’ first round on Friday, a black bear walked beside the tee at the 16th hole<\/p>\n

On Friday,\u00a0fans rushed to take videos and photos of the bear as it wandered by the 16th hole. Even those on the tee box stopped to take a look.<\/p>\n

The bear scares come only days after one was euthanized just a few miles away after attacking a camper at a site in South Lake Tahoe.<\/p>\n

As reported by ABC10, the female black bear had been known for multiple home invasions and vehicle break-ins, and it entered an occupied trailer at 4:30am and swiped at the sleeping camper.<\/p>\n

Designated a ‘public safety bear’, it was then killed by a State Parks ranger and its two cubs were taken to a Northern California<\/a>\u00a0wildlife rehabilitation facility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The American Century Championship was won by ex-hockey star Joe Pavelski, with Travis Kelce finishing in a tie for 63rd and Jason down in 86th.<\/p>\n
