Katona and Varga showed that for any rational number $t \in (1/2,1]$, no chordal graph is minimally $t$-tough. We conjecture that no chordal graph is minimally $t$-tough for $t>1/2$ and prove several results supporting the conjecture. In particular, we show that for $t>1/2$, no strongly chordal graph is minimally $t$-tough, no split graph is minimally $t$-tough, and no chordal graph with a universal vertex is minimally $t$-tough.
