The 2024 LPGA season is on a small break! But don’t think that there is any less action happening in the lives of female pros! A lot of new stuff is happening in the golf world, just outside the greens. Like how Tiger Woods asked Nelly Korda to hit a ‘Kisser Cut’ and how Jessica Korda recently became a mommy golfer. Another LPGA star doing a lot in her off-season is Lexi Thompson!
The American golfer played only one LPGAT event this year and earned $21,585 from her 16th finish at the LPGA Drive-On Championship. However, it looks like the 28-year-old got the rest she needed for her next event.
Lexi Thompson switches on her vacation mode
The LPGA Tour is on a break until the Honda LPGA Thailand and many female golfers are enjoying the downtime. However, the event will start in the last week of February, and Thompson is preparing! In an Instagram post from the last day of January, she urged her fans to “push yourself, because nobody else is going to do it for you.”
Furthermore, she was seen donning a pair of Puma apparel, the brand she has been trusting since 2010. It is claimed by Forbes that the American golfer earns around $4 million a year from her endorsements!
Apart from working out for her next event, Lexi Thompson is also vacationing in the Dominican Republic. The LPGA star shared glimpses of her sunbathing in the resort town of Punta Cana while also sipping on some tropical juices.
But along with that, she noted that it is “time to get back home to grind.” After being away from the LPGA Tour for a month, she is getting her equipment in top-notch condition.
The American golfer is prepared for the upcoming LPGA Tour event
Lexi Thompson recently shared her visit to Club Champion with her fans. They are known for their professional golf club-fitting. The LPGA star claimed Club Champion fine-tuned her clubs, preparing her for the event in Thailand.
Her stardom has attracted a lot of brand deals towards her, making her one of the top-paid female golfers. However, she has repeatedly used her name for good too. Like recently, she raised awareness about a woe of female athletes – muscle pain.
She praised Iovera, a treatment method that uses extreme cold to temporarily stop nerves from sending immediate pain signals. This method is a great boon for athletes while they are on the field.
From all her social media posts made during the break, it looks like Lexi Thompson has kept herself busy by taking up new deals. But she has also not forgotten to kick back and relax, destressing before the big showdown in Thailand.
