Can Caitlin Clark's golf swing match her basketball prowess, or is she out of her league?

“Maybe play some golf. That’s what I’m gonna do until it becomes too cold in Indiana. So I got that. I’ll become a professional golfer.” Shedding light on her off-season plans, Caitlin Clark expressed her wish to chase her golfing dreams. Having participated in the John Deere Classic Pro-Am in July 2023, and impressed fellow Iowan Zach Johnson and Ludvig Aberg, the ROTY’s switch to golf has been anticipated ever since.

And now reports of the ‘generational talent‘ taking lessons from former LPGA pro Martha Foyer-Faulconer to master her short game, and polish her swing, while delving into the intricacies of the game and discovering new things about her style, like she is right-eye dominant, only added to the excitement of her admirers. However, Clark’s followers don’t have to wait long as she will soon take the club to the green and show her golfing prowess. But before that, she has more to offer to her fans.

Previously, the Women’s Leadership Summit wasn’t planned on any platform until NBC came to Clark’s rescue and took the initiative of providing the users with the live stream of the event. This move might again break some viewership records.

The event will take place between 10 a.m.-2 p.m. ET and the official website of the LPGA and NBCSports.com as per theannika.com. The next day, she will be performing at The ANNIKA. Driven by Gainbridge, the tournament will feature Gainbridge’s ambassador Clark along with Sorenstam and Nelly Korda, who has been compared to Serena Williams for her achievements in golf by none other than the legendary Tiger Woods.

What’s your perspective on:

Can Caitlin Clark's golf swing match her basketball prowess, or is she out of her league?

Have an interesting take?

Imagine having a crossover between Clark, and Korda. The event indeed will be one of the most anticipated watches. Additionally, Andretti INDYCAR drivers Colton Herta and Marcus Ericsson will participate in the event as guest caddies, another reason to not miss it.

The tickets for Wednesday’s Pro-Am can be purchased at www.TheAnnika.com. The tee time of the event is 7 a.m. ET. However, for viewers, there is disappointing news as it will not be live-streamed on any of the channels. Nonetheless, fans can catch the highlights of the live tournament look-ins and expanded tournament preview coverage at GOLF Channel’s Golf Today from 11 a.m. ET onwards on Wednesday.
