Who are Lexi Thompson’s parents?

Lexi Thompson’s parents are Scott and Judy Thompson, according to NBC Sports. The couple also has two more kids, Nicholas and Curtis. Both of them are pro golfers who have played on the Korn Ferry and the PGA Tour. Lexi is the youngest and Nicholas is the eldest.

However, the Thompson family made a revelation in January 2012 to the Golf Channel that Nicholas is actually a stepson to Scott. His biological father is Curt, Scott’s elder brother, who passed away in a skiing accident in February 1983. Originally, Judy and Curt got married in March 1980 after a high love story.

Curt passed away at the age of 25 when Nicholas was eight weeks old. Then Judy used to work as a dental assistant.

Moving on, Scott had to leave for Michigan to study, but he missed his days with his brother, Judy, and friends. As soon as he graduated, he returned to South Florida and began earning by doing jobs. He stayed in a spare room of Judy's and they helped each other out by taking care of Nicholas and doing chores. Eventually they fell in love, marrying in October 1985.

Judy said (via NBC Sports):

“It took awhile, but doing so many things together with family and friends, it was just kind of a natural flow to something more. It was like it was meant to be.”

Almost ten years after everything was finished, Lexi spoke to the public in the middle of 2017. As per ESPN, she said:

"I remember when she got diagnosed with cancer and luckily, they caught it pretty early. Just to see how much she's fighting, it's inspirational."

“My dad has been there for us (all three kids) as support when we’ve needed it; encouragement when we’ve needed it; help when we’ve needed it. He’s been my coach forever. But more than that, sometimes he’s just there to give you a hug. That’s so important.”
