The basketball star, Caitlin Clark, is preparing for a return to action, but this time on the golf course.

After a season marked by injuries in the WNBA, Clark will participate in the pro-am of The Annika tournament, an LPGA Tour event.

“I had an incredibly good time at The Annika last November, participating in the pro-am alongside Nelly Korda and Annika Sorenstam, two of the best in the game,” Clark stated.

The pro-am will take place on November 12th at the Pelican Golf Club and will be open to the public.

In the previous edition, after her first season in the WNBA and being named Rookie of the Year, Clark generated great expectation and attracted a considerable crowd.

The Annika is the penultimate tournament on the LPGA schedule. Clark has a corporate relationship with Gainbridge Insurance, the main sponsor of the event.

The second season of Clark in the WNBA was affected by injuries. She was only able to play 13 games and was ruled out for the rest of the season on September 4 due to a groin injury.

Although her team, the Indiana Fever, reached the playoffs, they were eliminated by the Las Vegas Aces in the semifinals.
