Top 15 earns LPGA Tour card
"Pursuing this game is a privilege. Your belief makes it possible."
— Lauryn NguyenRoad to the LPGA Tour
A launch monitor is the same precision technology used by Tour professionals to measure and refine every aspect of ball flight. It's the tool that closes the gap between where Lauryn is and where she's going.
Lauryn Nguyen
Muni Courses.
Born in Seattle to parents who fled war-torn Vietnam, Lauryn learned golf at Jefferson Park Par 3 and West Seattle muni. No IMG academy. No country club.
She closed the gap anyway.
Decorated.
The most decorated golfer in Northwestern history — lifting the program to a Top 10 powerhouse, leading the team to a 2025 NCAA National Championship.
"She made me a better coach. She made us better people. Regardless of what Lauryn does, she'll find a way to contribute to the community and impact her world."
— Coach Emily Fletcher · Northwestern Women's GolfIs Next.
In her first season on tour, she's already ranked #30 on the Race to the Card. Fifteen spots from an LPGA Tour card.
The next chapter starts now.
"To my mom, who survived the South China Sea, and my dad, who endured Kuku Island — your resilience is the foundation I stand on. Pursuing this game is a privilege. I will spend my life paying it forward."
Back.
Before the Epson Tour. Before the NCAA Championship. Lauryn and her brother Alex founded the Đức Foundation - with the help of their family and friends, they organized Seattle's annual charity golf tournament and directing every dollar raised back into the community.
The Foundation's reach extends beyond Seattle. Đức Foundation supports and mentors students in Vietnam — honoring the country Lauryn's family left behind, and investing in the next generation they never forgot.
$217,000 raised. Six years of impact. Two countries connected.

Lauryn's goal extends beyond the LPGA Tour card. She intends to use the platform to open doors — advocating for diversity and inclusion in a sport that doesn't always reflect the communities that love it.
She wants the next Lauryn Nguyen to have every resource she didn't.
She started at Jefferson Park Par 3. The course that made her is the same reason she shows up for the next generation — so the gap she closed doesn't have to be closed again.

Coverage of Lauryn's journey from Seattle's muni courses to the national stage.
Gainbridge selected Nguyen as a sponsor invite to compete alongside the world's best professional golfers — chosen for both her play on the course and her philanthropic initiatives. She joined Caitlin Clark as a brand ambassador spotlight at the event.
The story behind the all-time NCAA upset — and the Vietnamese refugee family whose resilience built the foundation Lauryn stands on. The highest-profile national feature written about her career.

Lauryn tells her own story — from first set of pink clubs at age five on West Seattle Municipal Golf Course to NCAA champion and Epson Tour rookie. The origin story in her own words.

Sells Itself.
Lauryn doesn't need a manufactured narrative. She is the daughter of Vietnamese refugees who survived the South China Sea and Kuku Island. She learned golf at Jefferson Park Par 3 and West Seattle muni. She became the most decorated golfer in Northwestern history and led her team to an NCAA Championship as a 10-seed over undefeated Stanford
Now in her first season on tour, she was selected by Gainbridge to share a stage with Annika Sörenstam at The ANNIKA — because her game and her story both demand attention.
The story is real. The audience is growing. The moment is now.
Not by chance.
Gainbridge chose Lauryn as a sponsor invite to The ANNIKA — the LPGA's penultimate event with a $3.25M purse — alongside Caitlin Clark. The selection was explicit: her play on the course and her philanthropic initiatives.
That's the profile a brand builds a partnership around. Athletic excellence with a story worth telling.
