The Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark will play in the LPGA’s pro-am event, The Annika driven by Gainbridge at Pelican, in Florida next month.
This will be Clark’s second consecutive year participating in the event, where she played last year alongside LPGA stars Nelly Korda and Annika Sorenstam. Clark, who attracted large crowds while on the course, has a multi-year brand ambassadorship deal with Gainbridge Insurance, the main sponsor of the event.
“I had an amazing time at The ANNIKA last November and participating in the Pro-Am alongside Nelly Korda and Annika Sorenstam, two of the best in the game,” Clark said in a statement. “I’m honored to be an ambassador for a company in Gainbridge that is so committed to elevating women’s sports. I can’t wait to return to Tampa Bay in November to play in the Pro-Am with the best women golfers in the world.”
Clark’s WNBA season was cut short because of an injury sustained July 15 in a game against the Connecticut Sun, and a subsequent right groin injury kept her sidelined for most of the season. Before her injury, Clark was averaging 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, and 5 rebounds in the 13 games she played during her second season in the WNBA.
The Annika begins Nov. 12 and concludes Nov. 16.
