Top-ranked junior Alexis Thompson truly showcased her game at the 2009 Navistar LPGA Classic Presented by Monaco RV. The 14-year-old Floridian and her father drove to Prattville, Ala., to try to Monday qualify for the event. When the day came, she and amateur Jordan Hardy were the only two entries, therefore earning their way into the official tournament. Starting off with a blazing 7-under-par 65 - a career-low - and following up with a 3-under-par 69, Thompson drew national attention for her game. She made the cut, finished at 6-under-par 282 for the week and tied for 27th. She will next compete in the American Junior Golf Association's The PING Invitational at Karsten Creek Golf Club in Stillwater, Okla., Oct. 9-12.
