Caitlin Clark nearly hit fans with a terrible tee shot at The Annika LPGA Pro-Am

Caitlin Clark is good at golf, but on the first day at the LPGA Pro-Am known as The Annika — the legendary Annika Sorenstam is host — she nearly nailed the patrons watching her tee off while hitting her shot into the water.

What’s wild about that is that Clark had one stated goal before the tournament, per Golfweek: to avoid hitting anyone in the gallery.

But she calmly took a ball out of her pocket after that shot and hit another one that looked much, much better.

Hey, it could have been worse — there could have been cats around, and those are her biggest fear.

Here’s a look at that shot:

Caitlin Clark is so brave because after that first tee shot I would’ve just dropped up by my playing partners
