Caitlin Clark is getting golf lessons from a former LPGA player ahead of pro-am with Nelly Korda, Annika Sorenstam
Before Caitlin Clark nearly made an ace that went viral on TikTok, the WNBA megastar had a lesson with Martha Foyer-Faulconer.
The Crooked Stick pro, who played on the LPGA from 1987 to 1995, was amazed by Clark’s ability to make quick adjustments.
“Within the time we were working, we saw some drastic changes,” said Foyer-Faulconer, who had another lesson with Clark on Wednesday afternoon in Carmel, Indiana. This time the focus was on short game. Foyer-Faulconer noticed in the TikTok video that Clark was quite tense in her shoulders.
It’s all part of a tune-up before Clark plays alongside World No. 1 Nelly Korda and LPGA icon Annika Sorenstam at the upcoming Annika driven by Gainbridge at Pelican in Belleair, Florida. Clark will take part in the event’s pro-am on Nov. 13 and Women’s Leadership Summit the day prior at the club.
Last summer, Clark created a frenzy at the John Deere Classic Pro-Am when she played alongside Zach Johnson and Ludvig Aberg. Johnson called the Iowa legend “transcendent.”
After the Indiana Fever were knocked out of the playoffs last month, Clark joked that she planned to become a professional golfer during the offseason.
