Caitlin Clark Competes in LPGA Pro-Am

Caitlin Clark, the WNBA Rookie of the Year, is set to compete in the LPGA Pro-Am competition alongside top golfer Nelly Korda on November 13, while also serving as a panelist at the Women's Leadership Summit. Despite her basketball commitments and the end of her season with the Indiana Fever, Clark has expressed a keen interest in pursuing golf professionally during the off-season. The event will feature Clark playing nine holes with Korda, whose influence on women's golf parallels Clark's impact on women's basketball; Korda has had an outstanding season with six wins in her first eight starts. Clark has previously hinted at her ambitions to transition to golf but remains focused on basketball for now. Their upcoming match has generated considerable excitement in the sports community, highlighting their roles as trailblazers for women in sports. Clark shared her enthusiasm for the event, stating, 'I love golf, so the opportunity to play in a pro-am for a tournament with a legend like Annika Sorenstam's name on it is so exciting.'
