Real Reason Behind Lexi Thompson's Retirement

Real Reason Behind Lexi Thompson's Retirement
Lexi Thompson, the girl who nailed 15 big wins in just 29 years, is retiring. Yep, while some golfers take half a century to reach that number, she did it in under three decades. And now, she's got to quit the game she loves. But here's the kicker-it's not her choice. People have made it so unbearable for Lexi that she can't even think about picking up a golf club again.
And let's be real-a lot of you out there are part of the problem, pushing controversies, and jumping to conclusions without a second thought about what's really going on. Today, Lexi is heartbroken, crying because she's leaving the sport she gave up her childhood and normal life for. The real reason behind this? It hits us all where it hurts. Curious to know why this insanely talented golfer is stepping away for good? Stick around, and don't forget to subscribe to the channel-this is where we spill the ultimate truth.

She was leading a tournament in the final round with in the last month. I don't know what happened. The LPGA tour is littered with great golfers retiring very young. Loraine Ochoua for one she wanted a family

There's SO MUCH MORE PRESSURE on the ladies' Pro Tours than on the Men's. (I've been involved with both) Ladies can be lethal to one another. Dudes, we don't even know when it's happening. It's savage to be aware of. I don't envy the female Pro Golfers like I do the men. The ladies can feel as if they have to sit in the corner of the room for fear of having their back exposed. Because they do !

Such a mental game

Maybe we need a new rule that allows local rules officials to decide if an infraction was a benefit to the player's round or just a mistake that didn't help the player.

Lexi has every right to her decision to retire. Hope she enjoys all her days, now she can relax and go about her life, not being under any pressure. She has earned that much. Good luck Lexi!

She will be back

I'm a lifelong Golf Pro. Lexi has been a fantastic Professional. Her intensity and competitive fire are admirable at minimum. That deal with marking the golf ball, that was BS. It is impossible to return the ball to the precise correct location. We all just do our best to be close and honor "the spirit of the rule". Frankly it's my opinion that the lack of respect for the value of the spirit of honorable competition has done irreparable harm to our society. An athlete needs to feel an obligation to place the spirit of fair competition above all else and consider it an honor to declare an appropriate penalty on oneself. Basketball Players FLOP. Football players sincerely attempt to hurt one another. Baseball players involve themselves in outrageous screaming matches with umpires. In Golf we declare an error when it is observed whether it be on ourselves or our opponent. We use phrases like "The rules of Golf were not intended to harm or attack the player." "It's better to be good to play with than to play good." "The rules of Golf have a foundation of intent". We don't only have rules in golf, we have etiquette.

And the media >s just as responsible. ..

[@SuperJourneyer]

This youtube channel being one of them. Lexi didn't give the "real" reason when she chose to have a press conference announcement?

[@jeffcarinda1719]

What other sport officials allow a call-in tv viewers comment effect penalty strokes being added? Total BS by the LPGA and the PGA!!!

[@charland57]

A Young woman's first concern is elsewhere than golf.She surely has other big plans.

[@chrissnape9537]

This must be an AI voice. Put ting instead of putting

[@OLDMANTEA]

“Her pudding issues”

[@johndbrock4375]

You don't know the reason

[@1976axerhand]

She has not won since 2019, and well her short game is bad and she cant hit a fairway no more....

[@John_Wood_]

Never liked her, questionable on the rules and always the victim.

[@CaddieGuy]

I'm sure you live a squeaky clean life don't you? You never fluffed your ball or moved it out of a divot? You know nothing about this woman and should be embarrassed by your own ignorance.

[@ponnappaganapathy9941]

Simple, Lexi wasn't mentally strong enough to deal with the adversity. The truth is the differential between good and great athletes isn't skill, but mental strength. Since she retired early that is the only assumption I can make
