Lexi Thompson made her pro debut at the ShopRite LPGA Classic ten years ago, racing onto the circuit in a Red Bull Racing display car. She was 15 years old, a rising 10th-grade student with all the components for fame.
“I used to hit it really hard when I was younger,” Brittany Lincicome said, “but she was on another level of swinging hard.”
Thompson was asked whether there was a “Lexi line” of apparel in the works during his first week as a pro. That would be OK, she replied. Thompson, an 11-time tour champion, revealed the new “LEXI” brand a decade later, following a change in her management team to GSE Worldwide, Inc.
Scott Thompson: Who is Lexi Thompson’s father?’
Scott Thompson was the father of the tennis star.
She was homeschooled and stated to an interviewer in September 2012 that she “went on to graduate a few months ago.”
The 25-year-lone old’s victory in 2019 came at the Bay Course at Seaview, when she sank a 20-foot eagle putt on the final hole to win by one stroke against Jeongeun Lee6.
Thompson said she gets chills every time she sees the video, which she did multiple times Friday night.
The 120-player field this week will fight for $1.3 million over four days.
With no crowds and no pro-am, organizers opted to extend the tournament to 72 holes for the first time since 1990.
