Caitlin Clark<\/strong>‘s 2024 is going to be hard to top … she was just named Time’s Athlete of the Year — and it turns out, she became pals with\u00a0Taylor Swift<\/strong>\u00a0in the last 12 months, too!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
The WNBA superstar revealed her budding friendship with TayTay in\u00a0a recent interview<\/strong>\u00a0with Time … after the outlet proclaimed she was its top sportsperson of ’24.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Clark told the publication she attended back-to-back “Eras” tour shows at Lucas Oil Stadium last month … and Swift showed the 22-year-old some big love at the events.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
The Indiana Fever guard said Taylor gifted her four bags of merch — and wrote her a note praising her. Clark also stated the popstar and her boyfriend,\u00a0Travis Kelce<\/strong>, were looking to get out to one of her games soon to. And, Clark said Swift even invited her to tag along to one of Kelce’s Chiefs game as well.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Clark — who said she met Kelce and Swift’s mom at the shows — has yet to take Taylor up on the offer … but as a huge Swiftie, it seems it’s only a matter of time.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
As for the rest of her big year — Clark weighed in on a bunch of other topics for Time’s piece … including her rivalry with\u00a0Angel Reese<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
She told the outlet there’s no bad blood whatsoever with the Chicago Sky forward — even though fans and media members try to make it seem that way.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
“We\u2019re not best friends, by any means,” she said, “but we\u2019re very respectful of one another. Yes, we have had tremendous battles. But when have I ever guarded her? And when has she guarded me?”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
Clark also opened up on her Mexican vacay with her boyfriend, her competitive drive — as well as that controversial playoff eye poke.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
A helluva year to say the least … but 2024’s got a few weeks left in it — and given the way things have gone for her, Clark will probably figure out a way to win them all, too.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
