Lexi Thompson’s Major wins so far
Lexi Thompson’s breakthrough at the 2014 Kraft Nabisco Championship, now known as the Chevron Championship, remains her only major title to date. Her win that week was filled with unexpected twists and impressive resilience.
Thompson was not among the top picks entering the tournament, and after opening with a 1-over 73, she sat well outside the top 10, trailing leader Shanshan Feng by seven shots. But the second round marked a turning point. Thompson delivered a superb 64, the low round of the day, which vaulted her into a share of the lead with Hall of Famer Se Ri Pak.
On moving day, Thompson kept her momentum with a solid 69. That performance kept her at the top of the leaderboard, now tied with another notable name, Michelle Wie West.
In the final round, Lexi Thompson came out strong. She made four birdies without a single bogey on the front nine, building a five-shot lead over West. Though she didn’t make any birdies on the back nine, her string of pars was more than enough. West, who needed a strong charge, could only post three birdies and one bogey, leaving her three strokes behind when it was all over.
The victory not only marked a major career milestone for Thompson, but it also showcased her ability to rebound under pressure and maintain composure in a high-stakes finish.
