Lexi Thompson’s social media break is not related to round with President Trump, agency clarifies

On Sunday LPGA star Lexi Thompson posted a message on Instagram, telling her fans that she was taking a break from all social platforms. “I’m too involved with it, and to read some of the hurtful things being said to me lately isn’t fair and I’m not dealing with it,” Thompson said. “It has come to our attention that the reason for Lexi Thompson’s decision to take a break from social media has been taken out of context by various media outlets,” read a statement from Blue Giraffe Sports.” Lexi’s decision was not based on a recent event or post, but rather from a culmination of harsh, hurtful, and unwarranted commentary from social media abusers over time.
