Caitlin Clark has range, and not just on the basketball court.
It turns out the Indiana Fever superstar and WNBA Rookie of the Year award-winner has some chops on the golf course, too, coming feet away from sinking a hole-in-one on Monday:
And yes, she successfully putted in for birdie.
Clark is not a mere hobbyist when it comes to golf. She will play in the LPGA Tour’s The Annika pro-am in November and has previously said that her offseason plans include a healthy dose of hitting the links.
“That’s what I was looking forward to the most with basketball ending,” she said of playing golf in the offseason back in Sept. 2023, per Alex Myers of Golf Digest. “Our coaches were like, ‘You need to get away from the gym,’ even though that’s really hard for me to do sometimes. I still want to be active and do something, so I’m going to go to the golf course.”
Clark also said that golf has helped her improve her mental toughness.
“You have one bad shot on the golf course or on the basketball court, you gotta move on to the next,” she told Myers. “Obviously in basketball I have four other girls on the court with me that I can lean on if I’m not having a good day or shooting well. If I’m on the golf course, it’s all on me. You have to accept that not every day is gonna be great for you. That’s helped me by translating that to basketball.”
