Indiana Fever superstar guard Caitlin Clark appears ready to go for the regular season after scoring 12 points in 13 minutes on Saturday night against the Nigerian National Team.

Clark had an injury scare in Thursday’s preseason game against the Dallas Wings, but did not appear on the injury report prior to Saturday’s match and played the second-most minutes of any starter in the team’s blowout 105-57 win.

Clark shot 3-for-4 from the field (2-for-3 from three-point range) and added 4 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal.

Clark struggled in the team’s first preseason game against the New York Liberty on April 25, after returning from an injury that cost her most of the 2025 WNBA season. She shot just 2-for-10 from the field and scored 7 points.

But she bounced back on Thursday against Dallas prior to the injury, scoring 21 points in 16 minutes. Over her final two preseason games, Clark scored 33 points in 29 minutes on 7-for-10 FG, including 4-for-6 from three-point range.

The Fever open the regular season with a highly anticipated matchup against Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings on May 9 in a game that features the past four No. 1 overall picks in the WNBA Draft. Clark was the No. 1 overall pick in 2024, Fever teammate Aliyah Boston went with the first selection in 2023 and the Wings have the past two No. 1 picks (Bueckers in 2025 and Azzi Fudd in 2026).

Boston, Clark and Bueckers each won the league’s Rookie of the Year in their respective freshman seasons, a trend Fudd is trying to extend this season. Each of the past four No. 1 overall picks has won Rookie of the Year, dating back to 2022 top pick Rhyne Howard.

Injuries derailed Clark’s sophomore season, limiting her to just 13 games in 2025. Saturday’s opener against the Wings will be Clark’s first regular-season game since last July and her absence was a tough blow for the WNBA, which counts on Clark’s popularity to drive television ratings and overall interest in the league.

The WNBA should be ecstatic to have Clark back, evidenced by the announcement that all 44 Fever games are set to be broadcast on national television.

Expect a lot of attention to be paid to Saturday’s game in Indianapolis.

Cameron Young began Sunday’s final round of the Cadillac Championship with a six-shot advantage. Even with a huge cushion, a moment of adversity always finds a way into the equation, especially when World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is playing chaser, but Young’s Sunday challenge was about as unique as they come.

With preferred lies in effect for the final round following over an inch of rain on Sunday morning, Young picked up his golf ball in the fairway on the Par 4 second hole before placing it on a favorable lie.

Just as he took his iron back to hit his approach shot, he paused and stepped away as he thought his golf ball had moved ever so slightly.

After a rules official arrived on the scene, Young went on to explain that his club was set up behind the golf ball when it rolled over forward. The grey area was whether or not Young’s action caused the ball to move, or gravity simply took over.

The rules official wasted no time in telling Young that he could move the ball back to where it was, and he would be assessed a one-shot penalty. The American did not protest the ruling, and the zoomed-in replay of the incident does show his golf ball move after he pulled his club back.

Given that Young was holding a five-shot lead at the time, it likely made it much easier to simply accept the ruling, but if things were tighter on the leaderboard it’s fair to assume the conversation with the rules official would have been a bit more in-depth.

As is often the case, the golf gods immediately smiled upon Young for being honest and essentially calling a penalty on himself.

After hitting his approach shot, his third, to just inside 14 feet, he drained his par putt. On the third hole, he carded his first birdie of the afternoon to extend his lead back to six shots over Scheffler.

Young has been operating at a different level than the rest of the field at Trump Doral in Miami.

After firing an opening round of 64, he kept the foot on the gas with rounds of 67-70 to head into the final 18 holes on Sunday. Young is seeking his second victory of the 2026 PGA Tour season after winning The Players in March.
