CLIFTON, N.J. — Another close call for Lexi Thompson.
Winless since 2019, Thompson leaves New Jersey with a runner-up finish at the Cognizant Founders Cup, two shots behind champion Minjee Lee. Thompson closed with a 3-under 69.
After her round, she said she was "proud" of herself, as she was in it until the final hole — despite fighting a migraine in Sunday's finale.
"It really is rewarding," Thompson said, keeping her post-round interview short because she wasn't feeling well. "I think as athletes we just want to see our hard work pay off. And when I'm home, I'm doing two workouts a day.
