Lexi is one of the most celebrated American golfers in recent years and is credited with inspiring the next generation of women golfers. At the age of 12, she was the youngest person to ever qualify for the US Women’s Open, before turning professional three years later, aged 15. She has won 11 times on the LPGA, and became a Major Champion in 2015, winning the Chevron Championship. Lexi is also a multiple winner at the Solheim Cup, taking the trophy in 2015, 2017 and 2024.
