Thompson will play in the Shriners Children’s Open at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas. The course measures just over 7,200, so distance shouldn’t be too big of a problem for one of the LPGA’s longest hitters (Thompson averages over 270 off the tee).
The 25th-ranked woman in the world has found her game over her last three starts, finishing T-19 at the Kroger Queen City Championship, T-8 at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship and solo fifth at last week’s The Ascendant LPGA.
