LET FAMILY MOURNS THE LOSS OF TITIYA PLUCKSATAPORN

The LET family is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former member Titiya Plucksataporn, who passed away on 22nd October aged 39 from cancer.

Titiya turned professional in November 2005 and was a member of the LET for 14 years, until December 2019, during which time she played in 186 LET tournaments, with 13 top 10 finishes, her best result being tied for third in the 2013 Ladies Norwegian Challenge. She went on to coach in her native Thailand.

Titiya started playing golf at the age of 12 and was coached by her father, Mr Tarat, who also often acted as her caddie on Tour.

Another of her caddies, Gary Wildman, posted on her Facebook page: “Very sad news. One of my favourite players to have caddied for. A lovely person and an excellent player.”

Known as “Tobby”, Titiya was one of the first Thai players on the LET and she always wore a smile, on and off the golf course.

Tributes have been pouring in on her Facebook page from her friends, family and students, which you can see here.
