One-time major champion Lexi Thompson announced Tuesday that the 2024 season will be her final one on the LPGA Tour as a full-time golfer.

Thompson made the announcement in a video posted on her Instagram (h/t ESPN's Mark Schlabach), and noted her excitement to spend more time with friends and family:

"While it is never easy to say goodbye, it is indeed time. At the end of 2024, I will be stepping away from a full professional golf schedule. I'm excited to enjoy the remainder of the year as there are still goals I want to accomplish.
