Young Kid With a Big Swing

[BAMAPHIN 22]

Alexis "Lexi" Thompson insists she's a normal teenager, despite her adult-size golf career.

If you haven't heard of Alexis Thompson, you will. Alexis, or "Lexi" as she likes to be called, is the newest sensation on the women's golf tour.

They said the same thing about Michelle Wie, and she is horrible and burned out on golf ....probably due to her parents. Too many of these kids are not allowed to live a normal life.

Lets hope her career doesn't hit rock bottom like Wie did.

Wie is still young she could come back... However, right now she is a mess.

Lexi could be a stud on the tour. I just hope they don't push her to try to compete against men. Let her develop on the LPGA for a while first. Let her win a bunch of tournaments there and then think of the occasional PGA tourny.
