Lexi Thompson has become the talk of the town! She, along with Rose Zhang, will be the first female participant in the charity event, The Match 2024.
With this achievement, all eyes are now on the LPGA Tour player. Fans are curious to know every detail about her love life and her personal life. However, not much is known about both.
While many know the golfer is a young prodigy, her parents are not always in the limelight. Let’s take a look at her early life and her parents, who also deserve appreciation.
The LPGA star was born to Judy Thompson and Scott Thompson on February 10, 1995. She was born in Coral Springs, Florida, and showed an interest in golf from her early days. It was her father, Scott Thompson, who introduced young Lexi to the game of golf. She has time and again thanked her father for doing so.
The LPGA star began golfing at the age of 5, and she began showcasing her natural talents in the game. Looking at her interest in golf, her parents decided to home school her so she could devote her time to the holistic sport. The young star used to spend most of her time practicing during childhood. Her father used to accompany her at tournaments as a caddie, which he didn’t stop doing even after she turned pro.
