Lexi Thompson Set To Skip Evian Championship Once Again
Lexi Thompson is not in the field for the 2024 Evian Championship, maintaining her ever-increasing absence from the fourth women’s Major of the season.
Thompson – who is currently ranked 33rd in the world – last featured at the France-based championship in 2019 but missed the cut for the second successive year and posted a frustrated message on her Instagram in the aftermath.
The 2014 Chevron Championship winner said: “To play well today hit one bad golf shot but hit 3 iron shots right at the pin 5 ft at one point then end up 40+ ft….umm really?
“Obviously just hasn’t been the course for me the last few years, but some girls are playing great, and I wish them the best of luck this weekend.”
Following no championship due to Covid in 2020, Thompson has not been back to the Evian Resort since. The 29-year-old scored a third, a T10 result, and a runner-up finish in each of her first three appearances following the event’s promotion to a Major in 2013 before ending T22 and T48 in 2016 and 2017, respectively.
