Fan shares the blood clot mark after being hit by Caitlin Clark's golf shot
Caitlin Clark had previously shared that she feared she might end up hitting one of the fans with her golf shot. Unfortunately, her fears came true, when she accidentally hit a fan watching her at the LPGA Tour pro-am at the ANNIKA.
During the game, the Indiana Fever star shanked a shot took which hit a fan in the shoulder. Clark signed the golf ball for the fan as a token of apology.
However, this whole incident held a special meaning for the fan who was hit. She made a TikTok video and showed off the blood clot on her right shoulder. In the video, the fan proudly remarked that she gave Caitlin Clark an assist.
"When I got up at 4:30 this morning, I didn't expect to give Caitlin an assist," the fan said in the video.
While the experience must have been painful, the fan certainly took it in a positive manner.
