Expect to see one of the world’s biggest superstars taking in a Caitlin Clark game soon.
Taylor Swift is planning on attending an Indiana Fever game this upcoming WNBA season to see Clark play in person.
Clark, who was just named the 2024 TIME Athlete of the Year, shared that news in her sitdown with TIME.
When Clark attended back-to-back Taylor Swift shows at Lucas Oil Stadium in early November, Clark met Swift’s mother and Swift’s boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
“Saw Caitlin Clark there. She loves being out there in Indianapolis, says it’s a fun city. She was into the show, for sure. She was there with her mom and a few friends. She’s a Swiftie, through and through,” Kelce said of meeting Clark on his ‘New Heights’ podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce.
Clark also received four bags of Eras Tour merchandise from the singer along with a note from Swift.
Swift’s note said that Clark was inspiring to watch from afar and that “Trav and I” are excited to get to a Fever game now that the Eras Tour was winding down. Swift also invited Clark to come watch a Chiefs game with her.
For Clark, that sounds like a dream come true. Clark is a self-professed Swiftie and massive Chiefs fan.
Clark was also surprised by fans’ reception to her attendance at those Eras Tour shows.
“People are just going crazy that I’m there,” Clark said about her experience at the shows. “I thought people would be so in their own world, ready to see Taylor. And it was just completely the opposite.”
Clark said that fans turned around to take pictures and were tossing her friendship bracelets once they noticed her at the Swift concert in one of the Lucas Oil Stadium suites.
Swift’s intentions to see Clark play in person is just the latest illustration of Clark’s magnetic pull and the impact that the Hawkeye legend continues to have across the globe.
Clark just finished her rookie season in the WNBA where she was recognized as the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year.
The 6-foot point guard averaged 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game while shooting 41.7% from the floor, 34.4% from 3-point range and 90.6% from the charity stripe.
Clark set all sorts of records during her first season in the WNBA with the Indiana Fever. Clark set the single-season rookie scoring record (769 points), the single-season record for assists (337) and the single-game record for assists with 19 against Dallas on July 17.
Clark and the Fever open their 2025 WNBA season with a home date versus the Chicago Sky from inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse on May 17, 2025 at noon CT.
