Lexi Thompson, currently leading the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship by one stroke, remains steadfast in her decision to retire at the end of the season. Despite holding a strong position in this major tournament, Thompson has made it clear that she is content with her choice to step away from professional golf.
When asked if a potential victory might influence her to reconsider retirement, she responded with composure, stating, “I made my announcement. I’m very content with it.” While she acknowledged the unpredictability of the game, Thompson emphasized that her focus remains on playing one day at a time.
However, her impressive performance has led to ongoing speculation about a potential comeback. With a championship win possibly signaling she still has plenty to offer, questions about her future will likely persist.
Thompson, though, insists that her current success is not driven by the freedom of impending retirement, but rather by her comfort and enjoyment on the course. As she continues to compete, fans and media alike will watch closely to see if her achievements might sway her plans.
