“Elon Musk backs Caitlin Clark, offers $10 million endorsement.”

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark has garnered several endorsements, including with Wilson, Nike and Gatorade. 

One deal that isn’t real? A supposed multimillion partnership between the WNBA star and X owner Elon Musk. 

“Elon Musk backs Caitlin Clark, offers $10 million endorsement: ‘I support you, Caitlin Clark,’” a recent Facebook post said.  

This July 23 post was flagged as part of Meta’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram.)

This claim originated on a self-described satire site and corresponding Facebook account, SpaceX Fanclub. 

Both the posts on the site and the Facebook account are marked as fabricated content. 

“We post SATIRE, nothing on this page is real,” the SpaceX Fanclub Facebook account page says. 

But the claim is being shared without the disclosure on social media. 

We found no evidence, such as credible news stories or public statements, that Musk has pledged money to Clark. 

We rate this post False.
