Caitlin Clark was a highly controversial exclusion from the Team USA women’s basketball team for the Paris Olympics. But she has big plans for the break.
“I’m gonna try to play more golf over the break, honestly,” she told reporters Tuesday (2:35 mark). “I haven’t been out there yet this year, so I’ve got new clubs that I’ve got to break in, see how they swing. So hopefully get out there later this week.”
“I think a decent amount of people actually play,” she said of potentially golfing with her teammates (5:45 mark). “We can get them into it.”
It’s likely the last Olympics break Clark will have for many years. The favorite to win Rookie of the Year is averaging 17.1 points, 8.2 assists and 5.8 rebounds this season and has adjusted to life in the WNBA just fine after her legendary college career.
