Caitlin Clark breaks the one rule she laid out for her golf tournament
WNBA Superstar Caitlin Clark is currently competing at The Annika. The event is being held at the Pelican Golf Club in Florida, and Clark is paired with World No. 1 Nelly Korda on the front nine. On the back nine, Clark will be paired alongside the host of this tournament, Annika Sorenstam.
Ahead of the tournament, the famous WNBA player had hoped she would not hit anyone with the golf ball. However, at the event, Clark came close to breaking that rule.
You can check out the footage of Clark's shot below (via Brentley Romine):
Before The Annika began, Caitlin Clark had hoped she wouldn't hit anyone with the golf ball in a statement to the media:
"I'm strong, and I can hit it. It just usually doesn't go straight. I mean sometimes it goes straight, but it depends. You just step up there and hope for the best. ... I just don't want to hit anyone with a golf ball."
Clark also said she was praying she would break 100 at the tournament.
