Thompson flew over the Honda LPGA Thailand on Sunday, six strokes ahead of South Korean In-gee Chun. Lexi Thompson is not only the first American in tournament history to win in 10 years, but is also expected to move up to No.3 ahead of Stacy Lewis in the world rancking. Lewis, who has held the top spots for the past 195 weeks, finished 35th. "It is enormous. I'm here not only for myself, but also to represent my country, to be an American, and it's fantastic this year with the Olympics where I would also have the chance to represent my country, ”said Thompson. “But I just tried to stay focused on my game, not the competition. I have tried to do my best, I am very grateful for the opportunity given to me to be here and pursue my dreams. "

The player took control of the tournament at the beginning of the week to never let go. Thompson had the best performance of his career this week in Thailand, posting his lowest score in Tour wins (-20 under par). His victory in Thailand marks his third title since July, having twice won the Meijer LPGA Classic and the LPGA HanaBank KEB Championship twice in 2015.

Nice reaction from the French Karine Icher who signs her best performance of the week, with a card of 69 (-3) allowing her to grab a Top 25 (24th to -2). Next meeting, the HSBC Women's Champions, in Singapore from March 3 to 6.
