You have to make a reason for it. Lexi Thompson will never play again in Major mode for Evian-les-Bains (74). Aged 29, she is indeed conspicuous by her absence in the field of the 2024 edition of a tournament which is celebrating its 30 years of existence this week. The one who announced her retirement at the end of the season several weeks ago has not made the trip to France since 2019 when she did not make the cut.
That year, she expressed her dissatisfaction on social networks, explaining in summary that good shots were not rewarded on the course of the Champions Course at the Evian Resort Golf Club. “I’m really happy not to have to endure this for two more days,” she said after missing the cut. Evian is a magnificent place but there are too many bad things for me, so I prefer to say goodbye. »
