Choice Bank, a division of Choice Financial Group, announced that it is adding another people first partnership with the sponsorship of LPGA Tour Member, Kim Kaufman. She joins Minnesota wide receiver, Adam Thielen, as a Choice Bank partner in community engagement.

Kaufman, who started playing golf at the age of four, was a four-time high school state champion in South Dakota and a two-time All-American at Texas Tech. She joined the LPGA Tour in 2014, and has had eleven career top-ten’s. “I am proud to represent Choice Bank at the Women’s PGA championship this June,” said Kaufman. “I have a great respect for Choice Bank and their People First approach.”

As part of the multi-year agreement, Kaufman will wear the Choice Bank logo on her golf hat during tournament play. In addition, she will participate in corporate events, as well as select advertising and social media.

“People first is the heart beat that drives our everyday decisions and influences how we engage with our customers, colleagues and community” said Tim Heilman, EVP, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer of Choice Bank. “All of us at Choice are excited to welcome Kim to our professional family as we continue to attract people who share our values. We are excited to partner with Kim both on and off the golf course.”

You can catch Kim and the rest of the LPGA tour on June 20-23, as they play in the KMPG Women’s PGA Championship at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, MN.
