Lexi Thompson and Megan Khang got each other's backs at the Dow Championship

Lexi Thompson and Megan Khang are playing as partners for the first time at the Dow Championship, but this isn’t their first time teaming up. The duo previously played together at the 2023 Solheim Cup in Spain, where they went 2-0-0 in foursomes.

After their opening round on Thursday, both golfers spoke about why their partnership works so well and how they’re approaching Midland Country Club this week.

Khang spoke about how they trust each other during difficult shots.

"I think, you know, we both kind of looked at each other and gave each other the look of the green light to go ahead, and it all worked out sometimes. Other times, we knew we had each other's back," said Khang (via NBC Sports).

When Thompson was asked why the pair clicks so well, she pointed to their personalities and Khang’s energy on the course.

"I think our personalities are one thing. I mean, she's a riot. She's so much fun out on the golf course. She keeps it loose, and she's so positive, and I think that's a huge help in team format. But besides that, she's a great player, so consistent, and especially with alternate shot and best ball. I mean, I always know she has my back," said Thompson.

Last year, Lexi Thompson played the Dow Championship with Brooke Henderson, finishing T8, while Khang did not participate in the 2024 edition.
