The LPGA certainly seems to support Caitlin Clark’s offseason golf plans.
After Clark, the Fever star who just wrapped up her first WNBA season, joked about becoming a professional golfer in her press conference following Indiana’s season-ending loss, the LPGA added fuel to the scenario with a post on social media.
“Count us in,” the LPGA wrote on X, while tagging Clark and adding an oncoming fist emoji.
Clark’s comment occurred following the Fever’s 87-81 loss to the Sun in Game 2 on Wednesday, which ended their first-round series despite a night where Clark collected a game-high 25 points and nine assists while playing all 40 minutes.
Then, she was asked postgame about a report on the WNBA broadcast that revealed she wasn’t planning to play overseas in the offseason.
“I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow, I don’t know what I’m going to do the next day,” Clark told reporters, saying she’d only focused on trying to eliminate the Sun and hadn’t thought much about the future. “Maybe play some golf. That’s what I’m gonna do until it becomes too cold in Indiana. So I got that. I’ll become a professional golfer.”
That prompted Fever teammate Aliyah Boston to chime in and say, “Not too much, babe. Keep it basketball.”

Indiana’s loss at Mohegan Sun Arena ended a rookie year in which Clark averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists and 5.3 rebounds per game — allowing her to set the rookie scoring record and the WNBA’s single-season assist record, in addition to her Associated Press Rookie of the Year honor and her fourth-place finish in the MVP voting.
And during those 42 games that served as Clark’s first taste of professional basketball, she helped the league set ratings records and sparked the Fever’s in-season turnaround from a 3-10 team — and one that’d already possessed the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 and 2024 drafts — into one that secured the No. 6 seed and provided a glimpse of what the franchise could become in future years.
