Lexi Thompson has expressed her pride in being an American on multiple occasions. Thompson revealed how much she enjoyed representing the United States during the 2024 Solheim Cup, which the country won outright. In an interview with Fox in September last year, she said:

"It's meant everything to me. Week in and week out, I always feel like I'm representing my country just by being an American. But it's just different when you step foot out there, wake up, put your country colors on, step on that first tee and hear, ‘Representing the USA’ and then your name."

She continued:

"Hearing the cheers and chants – as an athlete, you always dream of those moments and how all your hard work puts you into that moment. All the pressure and all those expectations, that's what you live for. To pull off all those shots under that kind of pressure, there's nothing like it. Those moments are what I've lived for."

During her Solheim Cup victory celebration, she donned an American flag on her shoulders while holding the trophy.
