Thompson has been one of the popular figures who have been consistently behind the development of young talents. Apart from being a part of this Pro-Am, the 2014 Chevron Championship winner's career reflects her commitment towards mentoring the younger generation of players.

Fellow LPGA Tour professional Lydia Ko once commented on Lexi Thompson's impact behind the growth of young talents. Back in 2024 at the AIG Women's Open, while talking about Thompson, Ko said in the press conference (via ASAP Sports):

"Lexi has done so much for the game of golf and for our tour. She is at every single Pro-Am party. So, it's not just what she does on the golf course, inspiring these junior girls and the people out here, but she does so much off the golf course, as well.
"I'm sure that even when she (Lexi Thompson) does retire, it's not like she's going to go MIA and not be seen again. I'm sure she's still going to be involved in golf in some shape or form."
