Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is more than ready to play in the upcoming Annika Sörenstam’s LPGA Pro Am in November. At least, judging from his latest TikTok video, in which she almost nailed a hole-in-one during a golf outing.
Ahead of the WNBA off-season, Clark said that she expected to take up golf over the next several months. And her social media activity proves she was totally serious about honing her skills in the sport. However, it seems like she is as talented in golf as she is in basketball.
Playing with Fever teammate Lexie Hull, Clark attempts a par-3 hole. “Caitlin, that could be it,” says Hull as Clark’s golf ball lands inches away from the cup. They both get stoked, and start celebrating. Hull also tries a shot, but it was not as good as Clark.
Hull and Clark have been spending time together during the off-season, and this is not the first time they have shared their activity on TikTok. They recently went viral for reviewing a local café called “Swig,” for which they received gifts from the owners.
Regarding golf, Clark will be participating in her second LPGA Pro Am. The Fever guard competed in the 2023 John Deere Classic pro-am, playing alongside the U.S. Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson and three other amateurs.

“It’s off the court that makes it easy to be a fan [of Clark],” two-time major champion Johnson told reporters (via The Mirror). “I just think that’s the way you handle yourself, with integrity and class. But you work your butt off, and if success comes, you’re going to have fandom. It’s just the way it is.”
