In a heartwarming scene, Patrick Mahomes’ three-year-old daughter Sterling was spotted mimicking a golf swing on the patio on mom Brittany’s Instagram, demonstrating her growing interest in sports. Mahomes, of course is also an avid golfer himself.

Unfortunately it might be a few years down the line before she shoots down all 18 holes. She missed the ball and claimed it was a practice swing, much to the joy of her mother.
And isn’t that the true spirit of golf anyway?
A tiny little three-year-old exclaiming “That was a practice swing” as her club fully missed the ball is precisely why golf was invented.
And if that isn’t adorable, then the dictionary needs some changes.
As the little one continued to miss the second and third attempts, Brittany remained supportive and even sent some pointers in the direction of the budding athlete, encouraging her to move her feet back and then swing.
Sterling finally managed to nail her swing and hit the ball, prompting Brittany to cheer with a “Wohoooo!”
Sterling’s got the cutest “practice swing”!

Is it any surprise that Mahomes’ eldest daughter has been bitten by the golfing bug, considering the 3x Super Bowl winner regularly takes his family out for golf outings?
Mahomes hits the course for quality time with his kids
When it comes to football, the Chiefs quarterback is fully focused. However, when he feels like taking a leisurely walk, he does so by enjoying playing golf.
Like back in March when Patrick shared a video on Instagram to show his kids’ budding golf skills with his fans.
In the clip, Sterling Skye and son Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III were seen enjoying a sunny day on the golf course.
While Sterling confidently swung a toy golf club and hit the ball, her younger brother, Bronze playfully tapped the ball with a club before it rolled away.
Brittany also posted photos of Bronze during their time on the course, where the toddler looked chic in his golfing attire- red Adidas joggers, an Adidas hoodie, and black and white checkered Vans sneakers.
Previously, Mahomes wished for his children to have the freedom to explore their interests without feeling pressured to follow in his football footsteps and it seems Sterling might’ve picked her choice of career already.
And even if it isn’t a career choice, she’s 3, she’ll figure it out because pretty sure Patrick wasn’t thinking about playing football at that age!
