Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark partnered with former world No. 1 Nelly Korda for Wednesday’s The Annika Pro-Am. During their time on the golf course, the two talked about which NFL team they root for. When Clark learned that Korda is a Green Bay Packers fan, she was taken aback.

Although the golf star is from Florida, she's still a fan of the Wisconsin-based team. As a devoted fan of the Kansas City Chiefs, Clark was shocked.

"Are you a football fan?" Clark asked.
"Packer fan," Korda replied.
"Not the Packers," the Fever star said.
"What are you?" the golf star asked.

"A Chiefs fan. I'm a huge Chiefs fan."

The two-time WNBA All-Star has been a fan of the NFL franchise since she was young. Additionally, she has been seen attending several Chiefs games live.

In 2023, the former Iowa star appeared as a guest on the "Manningcast," where she spoke proudly about being a Chiefs fan.

“I’ve been a Chiefs fan since I was a young girl. My brother was a Chiefs fan, my dad was a Chiefs fan. I had cousins in Kansas City that were Chiefs fans,” Clark said (Timestamp: 00:38).

“Honestly it was just something all I knew. In our basement, we had a Chiefs vending machine. We had those toy helmets that were Chiefs that you could run around in the yard and I could knock helmets with my brothers.”

Additionally, Caitlin Clark discussed her love for the Chiefs during her guest appearance on the podcast "New Heights." One of the hosts is star tight end Travis Kelce. The WNBA star appeared on the show's Jan. 2 episode.


Nelly Korda shared what it's like being on the golf course with Caitlin Clark

Caitlin Clark and Nelly Korda bonded on the golf course once they became partners. It isn’t the first time the two have been paired; the athletes were also partners at the LPGA Pro-Am in November 2024.

During their recent pairing, Korda was asked about what it's like being on the golf course with the Fever star.

"I think she was maybe a little bit more comfortable. We knew each other a little bit more so for us chit-chatting was a lot of fun. I would say the same amount of people showed up this year as last year. That to me is really cool to see," said Korda.

Through golf, the two have begun to bond. Korda also gave Clark a brand-new pair of her Nike Free Golf shoes before the event. The new pair will be released in late November.
