Megan Khang, an American professional golfer, began playing at the age of five and qualified for the 2012 Women's Open less than a decade later, at the age of 14. Khang has four professional wins, three of which came as an amateur: the Connecticut Women's Open in 2012, 2013 and 2015.
She became professional in 2015 and received an LPGA Tour card for the 2016 season. In her first season on the LPGA Tour, she finished in the top 10 twice and made 17 cuts out of 28 events.
Khang started 32 times on tour in 2017, more than any other player. Khang earned a spot on the US Solheim Cup squad in 2019 after a season that had seven top-10 results. She would record one defeat and two ties.
August 2023 marked Khang's 191st LPGA Tour start and her first LPGA Tour victory. The American defeated Jin Young Ko at the CPKC Women's Open with a par on the first extra hole after shooting a final round 74.
Who is Megan Khang’s caddie?
Megan Khang’s caddie is Jack Fulghum as of March 2024.
Previously caddied by Kurt Moskaly of Ohio, Megan Khang is now partnered with more seasoned bagman Jack Fulghum, who helped her secure her best-ever major finish of joint third in the 2023 KPMG Women's PGA Championship.
At one point during the tournament, Khang struggled and acknowledged, "Honestly, out there, I kind of was having a mental breakdown." Fulghum most certainly deserved his share of the spoils.
Fulghum was once Lexi Thompson's caddie, and his treatment for heat stroke during the Tokyo Olympics garnered national attention. On the first day in Japan, Thompson had reached the 15th hole and was walking to her second shot when Fulghum, her caddie, hesitated. “He just asked me, ‘Do I look white to you’? And I'm like, I didn't really notice, but he just didn't look good. I just want him to be healthy, that's all,” Thompson stated.
Fulghum claimed he thought he could faint, and Thompson advised him to take a seat in the shade. For the final three holes, he was replaced on Thompson's bag by Donna Wilkins, a Team USA team captain strolling alongside the foursome.
Thompson continued to use fill-ins for the rest of the week until the couple officially parted not long after. Fulghum seems to have found a steady job with Khang; the two have been coworkers for several years. He has been in the bag for Khang's first victory on the LPGA Tour at the 2023 CPKC Women's Open.
