Professional golfer Jake Knapp has publicly mourned the death of his girlfriend, Makena White, who passed away at the age of 28 earlier this week. White, a Canadian with a background in software engineering and sales, was beloved by friends, family, and the golf community for her selflessness and joyful spirit.
