BELLEAIR, Florida — Caitlin Clark brought her golf game and a big buzz to the LPGA Tour on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila) when the basketball star played in a pro-am that attracted a bigger crowd than the tour often gets for its tournament rounds.
Clark played nine holes with Nelly Korda, the No. 1 player in women's golf who is competing for the first time in nearly two months after a minor neck injury. She played the back nine at Pelican Golf Club with Annika Sorenstam, host of a tournament called The Annika.
