Reese\u2019s Social Media Jab: \u201cBare Minimum\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\nAngel Reese, who has become known for her competitive edge and fearless personality, took to\u00a0Twitter<\/strong>\u00a0(now X) to share her thoughts after seeing the crowd around Clark. Without directly mentioning Clark\u2019s name, Reese posted a tweet that read:<\/p>\n\u201cSeems like people are real quick to put others on pedestals for doing the bare minimum.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/ins><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n
Though the tweet was subtle, it was widely interpreted as a dig aimed at Clark, who continues to enjoy enormous popularity following her record-breaking performances during the\u00a02023 NCAA Tournament<\/strong>. Reese\u2019s remark seemed to express frustration with what she perceives as the media\u2019s tendency to elevate Clark, especially given the attention she received at the LPGA event, while her own achievements \u2014 particularly LSU\u2019s historic national title win \u2014 have sometimes been overshadowed by Clark\u2019s individual accolades.<\/p>\nCaitlin Clark brought her golf game and a big buzz to the LPGA Tour on Wednesday when the basketball star played in a pro-am that attracted a bigger crowd than the tour often gets for its tournament rounds.<\/strong><\/p>\nClark played nine holes with Nelly Korda, the No. 1 player in women\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n
During a brief interview with Golf Channel, the WNBA rookie of the year was asked if she picked up any tips from Korda.
\n\u201cI\u2019ve watched and she\u2019s amazing,\u201d Clark said. \u201cBut golf is hard.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe gallery packed behind the ropes to watch Clark, and she signed autographs for hundreds of fans when the pro-am was over.<\/p>\n
Clark has an endorsement deal with Indiana-based Gainbridge, the presenting sponsor of the LPGA\u2019s penultimate tournament on the schedule. She also took part in a women\u2019s leadership summit hosted by Gainbridge.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt can only help grow women\u2019s golf,\u201d Brittany Lincicome said Tuesday, bringing a basketball for Clark to sign for her daughters.<\/p>\n
Korda comes from a top sporting family. Her older sister, Jessica, played in the Solheim Cup and younger brother Sebastian is No. 23 in the men\u2019s tennis ranking. Their father, Petr Korda, won the 1998 Australian Open in tennis.<\/p>\n
She said she has messaged with Clark on Instagram, but nothing topped spending time inside the ropes.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo see the influence that she has on people, bringing people out here, and to see how amazing of an influence she is just for sports, was really cool to see firsthand today,\u201d Korda said.<\/p>\n
Clark said she likes getting away to play golf \u2014 she played in the John Deere Classic pro-am last summer on the PGA Tour \u2014 and she contributed one putt from about 3-point range.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was great to see how relaxed she was,\u201d Korda said. \u201cObviously with the media attention she has gotten probably in the past year-and-a-half, two years, you can see how she\u2019s comfortable playing in front of a larger crowd. And she was just really enjoying it. You can tell.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s definitely very talented. She was picking the ball really clean. She was losing a couple shots to the right, but I asked her how many times a week she plays and I think with the amount of obligations she has she probably gets to the golf course once a week.\u201d<\/p>\n
Korda last played at the Kroger Queen City Championship on Sept. 22, a week after she led the Americans to a Solheim Cup victory. She spoke of having migraines and thinks her neck injury that kept her from the Asian swing might have been related.<\/p>\n
Korda already has clinched LPGA player of the year for the first time. She leads the Race to CME Globe but still needs to win the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship next week, which awards $4 million to the winner.<\/p>\n
