The 2024 LPGA season is on a brief pause, but female golfers remain active off the course. While Tiger Woods challenged Nelly Korda to a ‘Kisser Cut’ and Jessica Korda embraced motherhood, Lexi Thompson has been making the most of her off-season.
The American golfer, who played just one LPGA event this year, earned $21,585 from her 16th-place finish at the LPGA Drive-On Championship. Now, she’s using the break to recharge and prepare for her next competition.
Thompson has been balancing training with relaxation. With the LPGA Tour resuming at the Honda LPGA Thailand in late February, she recently shared a motivating Instagram post urging fans to “push yourself, because nobody else is going to do it for you.
” Sporting Puma apparel, her long-time sponsor, she reaffirmed her dedication to fitness and preparation. According to Forbes, her endorsements bring in an impressive $4 million annually, making her one of the highest-paid female golfers.
Alongside training, Thompson has also been vacationing in the Dominican Republic. She shared glimpses of her sunbathing in Punta Cana, sipping tropical drinks while enjoying the serene surroundings.
Despite the relaxation, she remains focused on her return, stating that it’s “time to get back home to grind.” To ensure peak performance, she recently visited Club Champion, a premier club-fitting company, to fine-tune her equipment ahead of the Thailand event.

Beyond golf, Thompson continues to use her platform for good. She has been raising awareness about muscle pain among female athletes, endorsing Iovera—a treatment that temporarily blocks pain signals using extreme cold.
Her break may have been filled with leisure and endorsements, but it’s clear that she’s keeping her eyes on the prize. As she gears up for the LPGA Tour’s return, fans eagerly await her next move on the greens.
