Is there anything Caitlin Clark can't do? WNBA star comes inches away from hole-in-one

Following the Indiana Fever's loss in the WNBA playoffs, star guard Caitlin Clark wasted no time telling the world what she would be getting up to in the offseason. "I'll become a professional golfer," she said.
However, despite making a few appearances at pro-am events over the years, she hadn't had a tremendous shot that really established herself as a potential pro on the links.
Golf is notoriously one of the most unforgiving sports in the world, so surely, it would be some time before Clark would wow fans with her stroke. Well, in typical Caitlin Clark fashion, she's already done it.
Clark posts near hole-in-one to TikTok page
Clark posted the video above to her TikTok page. She and her golfing partners filmed this hole specifically, likely due to it being a short par 3. The potential for aces on such holes are still astronomically low, but much higher than on tougher holes.
Of course, the tee shot doesn't matter if you can't sink your putt. Clark, immune to pressure, sank her birdie putt with ease, letting out a loud "YES!" following the shot.
When will Clark play in a golf tournament?
Clark recently announced that she will participate in the LPGA's upcoming pro-am event, 'The Annika', scheduled for November 13. Clark has impressed fans with her golf game before, but this was perhaps the greatest shot she's ever hit.
