Caitlin Clark made some fun of comedian Michael Che for “making too many jokes about” women’s athletics.
US Weekly reports the 22-year-old appeared in a Saturday Night Live skit with Che on April 13.

Caitlin made her cameo after Che joked, “The University of Iowa has announced that Caitlin Clark will have her shirt retired and replaced with an apron.”
The crowd later booed him. The 40-year-old added, “Oh, well, the WNBA Draft is this Monday, and Iowa star Caitlin Clark is expected to be the No. 1 pick.”
“Here to comment is Caitlin Clark,” Che said before the camera panned to the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer.
“Thanks for receiving me,” the guard said before addressing Michael’s sexist joke. “Really Michael? Because I heard that little apron joke you made… You make a lot of jokes about women’s sports, don’t you, Michael?
Che chose not to stand by what he said. However, his co-host Colin Jost provided video evidence of each time Mike tried women’s athletics.

“Wow, Colin with the receipts! Thanks man.” Caitlin said. “Obviously, I can’t tell jokes like you, but I wrote some jokes. It would mean a lot to me if you read some, right there on the cards.”
Che began to read the teleprompter reluctantly.
“The Indiana Fever has the first pick in this Monday’s WNBA Draft. A reminder that Indiana Fever is a WNBA team and not what Michael Che gave to dozens of women at Purdue University,” he said.
Clark instructed him to read the next joke.
“Netflix’s new flagship show is Ripley, featuring a haunting and disturbing performance from actor Andrew Scott,” Michael read it.
He continued, “Critics say it’s the hardest thing to watch on Netflix since Michael Che’s ‘Shame the Devil’ special.”
Michael continued with the following joke, highlighting Clark’s basketball achievement.
“And I have three tips for Michael Che. One: Be. Two: Funnier. And three: idiot”, said the comedian.
After the comedian wrapped up the session about himself, he wished Caitlin well in her future endeavors.
“Good luck in WNBA. I hope you have a great first season,” Michael said.
Caitlin gave Che an autographed apron as a souvenir, making the comedian and the audience laugh.
