It goes without saying that this is one of the most crucial years of Lexi Thompson‘s career. Unable to secure a win on the LPGA Tour in the last 3 years, and after a season full of disappointing performances, she currently is seeking a revival with an excellent performance at the Solheim Cup.

With the prestigious event just one week away, Thompson is practicing hard, working on her skills, and choosing not to give herself a break. Before participating in the critical tournament, Thompson gave her fans a preview of her preparations for Andalucia.

This year despite her not winning a single tournament, Thompson has been selected to play in next week’s Solheim Cup due to her 25th ranking on the Rolex Women’s World Golf Ranking. And the 11-time LPGA winner understands that she has an enormous responsibility on her shoulders.

Her captain Stacy Lewis has said that Thompson’s previous experiences with the Cup are an enormous asset. She expressed that Lexi would be an immense help to the team of younger girls. With so many people relying on her shoulders, Thompson is choosing to keep herself motivated.

She will be spending the next 5 days at her home, but instead of taking a break, Thompson will be continuously practicing. With her latest Instagram post, Lexi has given her fans a preview of her hard work before the event. She has posted two videos from the green in which she is practicing on her swings.
