The golfing world has lost a rising star.
Australian golfer Jessica Bang died Aug. 13 in Thailand after suffering a brain hemorrhage while preparing to compete in an upcoming tournament, her family’s GoFundMe confirmed. She was 18.
According to her cousins, the athlete was taken to the hospital Aug. 1 after collapsing and underwent emergency brain surgery. She was ultimately placed on life support and was in the intensive care unit as they attempted to bring her home to Australia to recover.
“We are truly heartbroken by this news,” the fundraiser’s update said. “However, we would like to continue to remember Jessica and celebrate her achievements, passion, and dedication to golf.”
“As her cousins, we will forever cherish the time and memories we shared with Jessica,” the message continued. “Her sense of humor, together with her cheerful and vibrant personality, will always be remembered and treasured by our family.”
