**Definition**: In the gap between any two consecutive odd primes we have one or more composite numbers. One of these composite number will have a prime factor which is greater than that of any other number in the gap. E.g. $43$ is the largest prime in the gap between the consecutive primes $83$ and $89$. I am interested in the prime factor in the gap between two consecutive primes.

> **Claim**: Every prime is the largest prime factor in some prime gap.

I am looking for a proof or disproof.

**Update, 7 Dec 2019**: Conjecture verified for $p \le 2 \times 10^9.$
