Caitlin Clark is widely regarded as the face of women's basketball despite being early in her career with the Indiana Fever.

Clark began her career in the WNBA less than two years ago and has already helped put the Fever on a platform. They're led by Clark on the court and head coach Stephanie White on the sideline.

In Clark's second season in the WNBA, the Fever defeated the Atlanta Dream in the playoffs. Clark sat out that series after suffering a season-ending injury, and the Fever wound up losing to the Las Vegas Aces in the WNBA semifinals.

After the season, Clark mentioned that she's fully healthy, recovering from groin and ankle injuries.

She took part in the pro-am that preceded THE ANNIKA LPGA event, making her official return to sports, this time on the links.

After partaking in the event for the second straight year, Clark sent a message on social media.

"Had a blast running it back for year 2," Clark said. "Thanks @annikas59 and @dantowriss for having me again."

In her second season with the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark wound up playing 13 games before being officially shut down for the season.

Clark posted 16.5 points, 5 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game for the Fever.

Caitlin Clark is heading back to the court to prepare for her third season in the WNBA. When she made her return to the action on the links, she was joined by Sophie Cunningham and Lexie Hull, who served as celebrity caddies for the event.
