Semi-retired Lexi Thompson is currently playing at the 2025 U.S. Women’s Open. This is Thompson’s first appearance of the month as she last played at The Chevron Championship which took place in April. Thompson did not have the best of second rounds at Erin Hills Golf Course.
After the second round, Thompson is placed at T79, while many other golfers are yet to complete their rounds. However, it must be noted that Round 2 was difficult for Thompson in comparison to Round 1 because she suffered through many roadblocks. Her struggles saw her score rise to 3-over par.
At the beginning of her second round, Lexi Thompson struggled and made four bogeys on her first six holes. She scored her first bogey on the par-4 hole 11, and followed it up by scoring three consecutive birdies on holes 13, 14, and 15. It was only on the 18th that Thompson saw some light as she made a birdie.
Thompson performed well on the front nine and scored a birdie on the par 4 hole 5. She managed to make par on all the other holes on the front nine to end her second round with an overall score of 3-over par.

Varun is a fan of golfer Scottie Scheffler due to the latter’s mindset, and he admires Roman Reigns’ ability to keep moving forward in life regardless of any obstacles. As a purist golf fan, he would love to compete at the Masters if given the opportunity, but is also happy with LIV Golf driving more eyeballs towards the sport. If he could go back in time and be a manager for someone in the WWE, it would have been Big Show.
Varun’s mantra for writing factually correct feature articles is thorough verification. Another key element in his writing is staying updated with both sports through the official websites of pro wrestling and Golf. He has had the privilege of interviewing MMA legend Greg Jackson in his career so far.
