HARRISON, N.Y. – Lexi Thompson didn’t win the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship Sunday, but she put on a fireworks show.
Thompson (third) equaled Sandra Gal (12th) for the low round of the day with a 7-under-par 66.
Thompson made eight birdies over the first 13 holes before a bogey at the 16th cooled her off. She takes some momentum into an important run in the women’s game. There are two more majors scheduled over the next seven weeks with the U.S. Women’s Open July 9-12 and the Ricoh Women’s British Open July 30-Aug.
