Apparently not satisfied with becoming one of the dominant forces in the WNBA, 2024 Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark is set to compete in a Pro-Am golf event in November. The Indiana Fever superstar will appear at The Annika, the penultimate tournament on the LPGA Tour hosted by golf legend Annika Sörenstam from November 11-17. As well as playing in the Pro-Am event on November 13, Clark will also feature as a panelist at the Women’s Leadership Summit the day before as part of the event in Florida. “I love golf so the opportunity to play in the Pro-Am for a tournament with a legend like Annika Sörenstam’s name on it is so exciting,” the 22-year-old said in a release. “I’m looking forward to seeing all the LPGA players on the driving range, being part of the Women’s Leadership Summit, and, of course, teeing it up in the pro-am with Annika.” This will not be the first time that Clark has tried her hand at the sport having played in a Pro-Am event at the John Deere Classic in July 2023 alongside Ludvig Åberg and 2023 US Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson. Clark and her team finished five-under-par that day. The rookie has just completed a historic season in the WNBA. Having been selected by the Fever as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 draft, Clark broke the league record for assists in a single season with 337, as well as the record for most three-pointers made by a rookie with 122.
