Lexi Thompson shares about her new sponsorship deal
Despite announcing her retirement from the game, the LPGA player is still very much in action at several tournaments. However, she's not playing on the LPGA Tour full-time and only competes in a few important tournaments.
Lexi Thompson signed a sponsorship deal with the financial services company, Empower. She posted a video on Instagram and wrote:
"I am very excited to announce my new partnership with Empower. We share a lot of the same values and I’m honored to work with their great team!☺️"
Thompson spoke about the similarities she shares with the financial services company and her excitement in working with them.
She has won 11 tournaments on the LPGA Tour since 2012, including the Chevron Championship in 2014. Thompson competed in the Major event this year as well, finishing with a tie for the 14th position.
In the JM Eagle LA Championship, the 30-year-old golfer failed to make the cut. She finished T38 at the end of the Ford Championship in March. Her first appearance of the season was at the Cognizant Founders Cup, where she was T13 after the final round.
