n a humid August morning at Panther National in Palm Beach Gardens, the GOLF content team gathered to spend a day with one of the game’s most sparkling personalities: Lexi Thompson. The occasion? A celebration of a career well-played. Earlier this year, Thompson announced that this LPGA season would be her last as a full-time pro. What does the future hold for the 29-year-old star? Thompson has some ideas, but is ready to embrace the unknown, too. One thing we know for sure: We’re going to miss her.
She’s not putting professional golf entirely in the rearview mirror, but Lexi Thompson’s decision to retire opens the door for her to experience a normal life for the first time ever. In an revealing interview, Thompson reveals just how ready she is.
