Clark has been spending much of her offseason recovering and preparing for future opportunities. Earlier this month, she played in the 2025 Annika Pro-Am in Belleair, Florida, where she said she was finally healthy again after battling injuries.

“I’m feeling back to 100%. I have been trying to take advantage of the fall weather in Indianapolis before it gets too cold.” One of Clark’s stated goals is to join Team USA for a March qualifying tournament”, Clark told the Golf Channel.

Clark has also reportedly agreed to join a $10 million golf match with Kai Trump, according to Dave Portnoy.

She will not participate in Season 2 of the Unrivaled league. With ongoing collective bargaining issues, the start of the 2026 WNBA season is still uncertain for the Indiana Fever star.
