Lexi Thompson’s retirement from full-time golf is bringing a level of openness from her that has only been seen in spurts during her career. With Thompson, 29, announcing over the summer that she'd step away from a full LPGA schedule—though she isn’t ruling out playing in selected events—this week's CME Group Tour Championship is a farewell of sorts at the end of her 14th year on tour.

Thompson missed four straight cuts during a six-week stretch starting in April but rebounded with three consecutive top 10s, including runner-up at the Meijer LPGA Classic. She has not won on the LPGA in nearly five years, her last victory at the 2019 ShopRite LPGA Classic.

In a shocking move earlier this year, Lexi Thompson, an LPGA Tour standout, said she was going to retire after the conclusion of the season.
