Thompson has had a partnership with PUMA, a sports apparel brand, since 2010 after turning professional. She extended it in 2014 and continues to be on its website's ambassador list.

The 30-year-old star announced retirement as a full-time professional golf player last year. However, she'll continue to compete in selected events on the LPGA Tour. She last competed at the 2025 Founders Cup where she tied for 13th. At the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship, she said while announcing her retirement (via LPGA):

"It's my 14th year. I'm not going to sit here and say it hasn't crossed my mind in the past few years, but I feel like I'm at a point in my life where it is time to step away from a full-time schedule."

"There are more things to life than going to a tournament every week and doing the same training every day. There's just more to it, and I'm looking forward to experiencing that. I feel like I'm very content with where my life is and where this decision will lead me to. I'm just looking forward to what life has in store other than golf," she added.

Lexi Thompson joined the LPGA Tour in 2012 and has 11 professional wins, earning $14.8 million.
