Lexi Thompson

I mean, not all the players were there, but a good chunk of the players.

You can tell that Lexi Thompson has shut it down because she didn't hit the greatest shots, but she was excited about WTGL.

Michelle Wee was excited.

I really think this is going to be a great opportunity for the women's game to really get to know these girls, see their personality in a totally different setting.

So it's five teams, uh, Detroit, New York, Atlanta, LA, and Boston.

Um, some incredible names, uh, Charley Hull, uh, Lydia Ko, Brooke Henderson, Lexi Thompson, Ronnie Yin.

We've got some of the be- Gino Tidicoon.

We got some of the best players in the world, uh, just s- just a smattering of the top players from the Rolex rankings.

I hadn't thought about this a little bit, but the 2023 Solheim Cup.

So Lexi Thompson was number one of the points list at the end of twenty twenty two.

She did not earn a single U.S. Solheim Cup point in 2023 and made the team in the final point spot.

And that was a point of contention that week of should Lexi go given how bad she's playing.

It's as simple as

puts her little marker down.

And it cost her severely.

And it was kind of a wake-up call for all of us to realize that we belong on this world stage.

I remember watching Lexi Thompson walk into Team USA house right behind, can't remember the name of the woman from volleyball, but the tall team sand volleyball player.

And they were sitting there talking to each other.

Kerry

I wanna see her contend.

Um, and then the last thing I wanna say is Lexi Thompson is, uh, probably gonna be, this probably be her last season.

Um-

Yes.

So I think also, too, the U.S. has to think about kind of how they bring in new captains and new assistant captains.

Like, is it time to give Lexi a call and make her an assistant captain? Is it time to give Michelle a call and make sure that she's involved? That's things that I would do, and I would look to

shake things up that way.

Yeah, I was surprised by Christy McPherson being there.

What is, what is going on in the women's game? [laughs]

They're up, they're up against Stacy Lewis and Lexi Thompson.

Now, this is a par 5, the par 5 15th, and both Europeans go into the water with their second shots.

Pettersen says, "That's it, I'm, I'm, I'm out of the hole," but Ciganda requests a drop and gets the officials to come over, and extraordinarily, the conversation goes on for almost half an hour before they decide exactly where she should drop the ball.
