I came across this Twitter link and article on Tech’s Kim Kaufman and her breast cancer battle. 2019 was her last full year on LPGA tour, but she’s won several times on the secondary tour and was working to regain her LPGA card for 2025.
Good article, but the doofus writer had her attending A&M instead of Tech. Hope this link works. I met her once and she was nicer to me than she needed to be, and everyone I’ve met in the golf community agrees she is a quality person. Thoughts and prayers her way. F*ck cancer.

Kaufman, who is from South Dakota and played golf at Texas A&M, is coming off one of her best seasons in a few years. She made 15 Epson cuts in 19 starts in 2024 and finished tied for second twice among five top-10 performances to earn $79,147. She also qualified for the U.S. Women’s Open at Lancaster C.C. and tied for 58th. Her last full season on the LPGA tour was 2019, when she had two top-10 finishes. She’s trying to make her way back to the biggest stage, but cancer has slowed that comeback.
