      @@Blacklist324 caitlins teammate grace berger was all state HS golf. LPGA player ally ewing was an all state basketball player so there's always a lot of crossover. Michael Jordan would routinely play 18/36 holes before a game, Steph Curry is an avid golf nut as well too. He congratulated Ronni Yin when she won a major last year.

    I don’t know why everyone in the general media is so scared to say how good she is, and that’s with the WNBA and officiating trying to keep her down. I know she didn’t look great on the golf course but it’s a different story with basketball.

    These guys are idiots comparing Caitlin Clark to Lebron or even MJ. These guys didn't go to a pro am tournament and have attendance go up 1,200%. They didn't help other sports grow. . Caitlin Clark isn't a generational talent. That would imply there have been others like her and there hasn't. Caitlin is a once in a lifetime talent that is much more important than any other athlete. .

      Come on now, We all love CC but Michael Jordan has been elevated to god hood. And LeBron James has 53 million Twitter followers alone, he's the first active nba player to reach billionaire status. I'm not a LeBron fan but there's no denying his clout. And why would you through shade on Jordan, he is the standard. That's where Clark is trying to reach.

      @@Blacklist324 Neither one of those guys could play in a golf tournament and increase attendance by 1,200% or even 10%. They were televising the warm-ups and they televised Caitlins round when they had no plans to televise it before Caitlins fans demanded it. They are not in the same league as Caitlin Clark. The Golf Channel is over the moon about Caitlin attending the Annika tournament. Parents are bringing their children to see her. No athlete has ever drawn the attention Caitlin is drawing right now.

    I noticed something there - I'm pretty sure she was subtly avoiding people who were clearly just trying to get something signed by her so that they could sell it online - there were at least 2 shirts in the crowd being held out with the cardboard inner 'frame' for the shirt still in them (or having been put in there themselves) that they were trying to keep from getting messed up in any way. It felt like scammers trying to get free money from selling her autograph, rather than FANS trying to get something signed by their hero.

    I disagree with the guy who said Sue Bird and D T. have better BB skills. He must have just flown in from another planet. CC has broken IN HER ROOKIE YEAR over 50 BB records. No one has 2 triple doubles in one season, and she's broken attendance records wherever she's gone. I'm not trying to put pressure on her when I say , CC is the greatest BB player in the history of the sport. It's just a fact.

But, seeing how you ladies treated CC, I’ll be watching you ladies as well. The W never watched until Caitlin joined. She is a positive influence on young and old alike. The W ladies didn’t treat her as well as true professional athletes. Golfers… 🙏🏻❤️

    I used to watch golf very much years back, Now, not at all. Differences had changed that. One would be channels are separating from broadband like Golf channel, ESPN, and sports streaming using services as a piggybank costing so much more per month, in doing this. Another, something about the players I have lost interest in watching them. Growing up on the 1960s and 70s there were so many golfers I wanted to see play. Now, boring. I was watching the LPGA till in the mid 2010s the American golfers winning had become the Asia golfers playing more than the Americans not only winning becoming in the top spots. Like the Pro-Am being on channels I do not have or can watch without paying $100 more per month. I wanted to see Clark just not that much. It is a changing world in sports where I do not watch much sports anymore, as I have grown older never thinking the change would affect me. I do not know how or why only Clark has struck me into watching WNBA and her. Maybe the old style of play that is lost in NBA for a long time.

    No, no, no! I'm sure you know golf, but Caitlin's influence on the WNBA is more like Magic and Bird than Kobe or LeBron. Not to say there weren't great players before Magic and Bird, because there most definitely were. But, the NBA was smoky arenas and tape delay games until Magic and Bird arrived. Similarly, the WNBA was just an underleague, despite having a history that includes some great players. With the addition of Caitlin, the WNBA is becoming a league of its own. Now, if we could just get male head coaches out of the WNBA ranks...

People taut Diana Taurasi's horn as a basketball legend but Clarke completely eviscerated her on the court this year, as a rookie, no less.
