Caitlin Clark set to play in The Annika pro-am on LPGA Tour
As Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark enters her second WNBA off-season, the former Hawkeye star will return to the LPGA's "The ANNIKA" Pro-Am event at Pelican Golf Club this fall in Belleair, Florida, according to an announcement by the event on Thursday.
Clark, a brand ambassador for Gainbridge Sports, participated in last year's event, which drew immense attention following her historic rookie campaign that culminated in the WNBA Rookie of the Year Award.
While the Pro-Am portion is obviously not an intense competition by any means, the actual weekend event hosted by World Golf and LPGA Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam is the LPGA Tour’s penultimate event for the 2025 season and final full-field regular-season tournament.

“I had an amazing time at The ANNIKA last November and participating in the Pro-Am alongside Nelly Korda and Annika Sorenstam, two of the best in the game,” said Clark.
“I’m honored to be an ambassador for a company in Gainbridge that is so committed to elevating women’s sports. I can’t wait to return to Tampa Bay in November to play in the Pro-Am with the best women golfers in the world.”
“It was an honor to play in the pro-am with Caitlin last year. The crowds were amazing, and we are excited for her return to The ANNIKA in November,” said Sorenstam.
“She added such a great dynamic to our event, and her passion for golf and competitiveness were fun to witness firsthand. I look forward to having her back and continuing to introduce the great game of golf to the next generation.”
Look forward to having Caitlin again! So much fun https://t.co/6tdSzOmVB4
