Lexi, you are awesome! Best wishes and blessings to you as you move forward to new happenings in your life. You have been a wonderful role model for the kids in golf and will make a great mom someday. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us and the graces you received in both good times and bad times. Anyone is lucky to have you as a friend. I always pray for people who have had hurtful words toward you. Really, those people were more than likely jealous souls. Loneliness is something we all go through. You are wise to retire and look forward to other things. God Bless You Lexi! As you noted, your life has been a Blessing and will continue to be!
Best of luck Lexi ❤
It’s a shame she is leaving the tour..always a fan favorite I don’t think she ever recovered after the incident years ago when she was given the 4 stroke penalty mid round over something done the day before..Hopefully she will play on a reduced schedule..
It's like so many others that are stepping away. She's been going at it full time for 13 plus years! If you've spent over half your life at one thing, and your not even 30?? It's time to take a break! To see what the hell else is out there. As far as I've always been concerned, who the hell cares what critics, social media et. al. has to say about her play. The only ones that matter? The ones she plays with inside the ropes. Not only as a competitor, more important.. as a human being! The rest of us? We're the failed one's. We never got to that elite level. Armchair quarterbacks are a dime a dozen. I wish you nothing but happiness and joy. Cause at the end of the day.... That is all that matters!
That was a setup I think. What governing body would even do that to a member. And for one inch? Give me a damn break.
Best of everything to a real class professional. Smile and be Happy Lexi
Lexi I saw you play in the ANA tournament in Palm Desert and you are an amazing golfer . The thing that impressed me the most as how the young girls followed you through the tournament . You always made time for them and they will miss you and you are such a great person and golfer best of luck in your upcoming future .
Damn it, sucks to see her retire! great career Lexi! impressed by how well you lived up to the hype
Thanks for amazing years of gentle smile on the Golf course.Best wishes for the future.

Her injuries caught up to her. She had a late rally last year to save her card and this did not surprise me at all. What a great career. Beautiful as ever.
God's blessings to you ALWAYS Lexi!!! Your an AWESOME young lady, a GREAT champion, an AMAZING ambassador for the GREATEST game, and you need to always hold your head high, never stop being YOU!! Lexi, ALWAYS believe in YOU!!! Keep the Faith ALWAYS and Always know The Lord is directing your steps and all we have to do is stay in Faith..🙏
My wife and I would be honored to meet you someday. Grew up in Lancaster and Lancaster Country Club. Currently Director of Golf & Instruction at Cool Creek Golf Club in Wrightsville Pa. BEST wishes this week and moving forward!!!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
God bless Lexi!!!! 👏
As a girl golf dad I am proud to have followed her career from that first US Open at Pine Needles. My daughter was about 10 and although we didn't get to see her play we did meet her and her mom. She was signing autographs like a pro while waiting to see if she had made the cut. What a great career, what an ambassador for womens golf. Got to say ....watching this got to me a bit. Nothing but love and best wishes to Lexi in this next chapter of your life.
Beautiful dreams are to be proud moments for any parents .son of refuge from India to Pakistan living in servant quarters but wanted to self taught golfer living in land of freedom.most of trophies in Norfolk uk with my name on them.
Life is nothing but dreams come true.
Be hungry for nothing but success.
Best wishes to you!
a true pro. has been a fav of mine for years...
What a golfer. What a woman. Best wishes for the future.
I don't think there is a more likeable player. The LPGA desperately needs more American stars, going to miss her!
Great player and a great person
I forbid this. Let Lexi know that I have spoken.
Best of luck Lexi on your next chapter in your life. You're a great golfer on the LPGA and a beautiful woman inside and out. You're the epitome of what a LPGA professional is and how many young girls have looked up to you and still do now. God Bless you and what ever decision you make for your new journey in life. You go girl!!
Great, Geat player. She will be missed. We will see her now and again in 2025. Always wondered why the players who have made millions dont skip a few weeks now and again instead of grinding week after week. Thanks for the great golf Lexi!
Sad loss for the LPGA but what a damn good golfer.
No...a couple years too late-was definitely getting passed by all the great young talent coming on board. But good for her stepping down.
She has really underperformed for years and you could look at her face and see she was unhappy and frustrated. This announcement was the happiest we have seen her.
She is the true definition of a “what could’ve been” player
The Greg Norman of the LPGA
Grayson’s passing had a huge impact emotionally on players, I’m sure it weighed alot on her decision
Not really surprised, IMO she has been dealing with some private issues the last 3-4 years added to when her Mom had health issues. Sounds like she is not shutting the door completely. Wish her all the best, class act.
Hi Lexie 👋😘😘😘 I love you Nelly Lexie Brooke to the moon and back 😘😘😘😘😘
why couldn't Lydia "I talk like I'm 12 years old" Ko retire instead of Lexi? Lydia is so insufferable
What?
@@slayerde440 You haven't paid attention to Lydia saying "you know" every damn sentence. Also, her child like innocence was fine when we was 15 or 16 but she's hasn't matured or grown with any poise the past decade
You’ve got issues
@@1slutton I second this
@@welcomebackpotter722you haven’t paid attention to ANYTHING in life? Lydia IS retiring after this year. God , you’re dumb.
Is that man going to play in USOPEN? I hope to hell not!
