ROSEMONT, Ill. – After matching the record for the lowest 36-hole score in program history, sophomore Jasmine Kahler has been named Big Ten Women's Golfer of the Week. Kahler earns the weekly accolade for the first time in her career, becoming the first Boilermaker to collect the honor since Ashley Kozlowski (Feb. 15, 2023).
Kahler led Purdue to a runner-up finish at the Briar's Creek Invitational (March 9-11), while placing second herself with a 6-under 138 (70-68) that matched Melati Purti's two-round program best set at the 2019 Big Ten Championships.
Along with tying a school record, Kahler finished 6-under for Purdue's lowest score (in relation to par) for a tournament this season. The second-place performance was her best as a Boilermaker, and she collected her fifth career Top 10. The Carlsbad, California, native led the 99-player field with 11 birdies over the 36 holes, while ranking second in par-4 scoring (-3).
Kahler carded a career-low 68 (-4) in the final round to secure runner-up honors and etch her name in the Purdue record book. With the sophomore leading the way, the Boilermakers finished 5-over to claim second place in South Carolina and record the third-best 36-hole team score in program history (291-290—581).
Kahler and the Boilermakers return to the links to close out the month of March and kick off April. Heading south, Purdue travels to St. Augustine, Florida for the Coach Mo Classic (March 30-April 1).
