Lexi Thompson's U.S. Women's Open streak in jeopardy
Jun 21, 2025; Frisco, Texas, USA; Lexi Thompson plays her shot from the sixth tee during the third round of the KPMG Women's PGA Championship. Mandatory Credit: Raymond Carlin III-Imagn Images Lexi Thompson's streak of 19 consecutive U.S. Women's Open appearances is in jeopardy after she withdrew from a qualifier on Wednesday in Florida.
The streak started in 2007 when a 12-year-old Thompson set a then-record as the tournament's youngest qualifier.
Thompson, 31, stepped away from full-time golf after the 2024 LPGA Tour season.
The 11-time LPGA Tour winner has missed the cut at the past three U.S. Women's Opens, where her best finish was a tie for second in 2019 at the Country Club of Charleston (S.C.). Her only major win came at the 2014 Chevron Championship.
Thompson had been scheduled to play a 36-hole qualifier at the Wilderness Country Club in Naples, Fla.
She can still play her way into the field for the June 4-7 tournament at Riviera by winning an LPGA Tour event or climbing into the Rolex Rankings' Top 75 by May 25. Thompson currently ranks 94th.
Her streak of U.S. Women's appearances is tied for the longest among active players with South Korea's Amy Yang.
