Caitlin Clark has revealed she plans to play plenty of golf during the WNBA’s offseason.
The rookie sensation and her Indiana Fever teammates were dumped out of the playoffs on Wednesday night after getting swept by the Connecticut Sun.
Clark scored 25 points and had nine assists in Indiana’s 87-71 loss in Game 2, a much better night than her playoff debut when she had just 11 points on 4 of 17 shooting.
But defeat ended what has been a remarkable first season for the Iowa Hawkeyes star, who has transformed women’s basketball, set a number of records and sold out arenas across the country.
Aside from the Olympics break this summer, Clark has had very little time to herself since leaving college and being drafted by the Fever. She’s revealed what she plans to do to keep herself occupied without basketball.

‘I was focused on beating the Connecticut Sun, I haven’t thought too far down the line,’ the 22-year-old said.
‘I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow, I don’t know what I’m going to do the next day.’
‘Maybe play some golf. That’s what I’m going to do until it becomes too cold in Indiana. I’ll become a professional golfer.’
Clark argued with a fan and pushed away a rival player as tempers flared in what proved the final game of her WNBA rookie season on Wednesday night.
Tempers flared in Connecticut as Clark traded jabs with a Sun fan sitting courtside before pointing them out to security, who quickly intervened to talk with the individual.
She also had another heated moment earlier in the game after Sun forward DeWanna Bonner was not called for a landing-zone foul while stepping into her path after a 3-point attempt.
