Semi-retired Lexi Thompson to play in Founders Cup
It didn’t take long for Lexi Thompson to make her return to the LPGA Tour after announcing her retirement from full-time competition last year.
Thompson, 29, will compete in the Founders Cup next week in Bradenton, Fla., according to the field list for the tournament.
Thompson qualified because she ranked 50th in last season’s CME points list. When she announced last summer that it would be her last season competing full-time on tour, she did not say how often she would compete going forward.
Another possibility may be the Chevron Championship, the first major championship of the season, for which she is also qualified as a past winner.
The Founders Cup had been played in May in New Jersey in recent seasons, but it has moved to a new location and spot on the schedule. Bradenton Country Club will host it this year, and it marks the second tournament on the schedule. The LPGA season began Thursday with the start of the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions in nearby Orlando.
Rose Zhang won the 2024 Founders Cup but will not defend her title next week as she returns to Stanford for her new semester.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
