Lexi critical of Evian course, 'very thankful' to miss cut

Lexi Thompson left the Evian Championship after a missed cut Friday smarting over the quirky nature of the test that mountainside course offers as a major championship.

After an opening-round 77, Thompson conceded she didn’t play well.

After a second-round 72, her complaint was more about how the course doesn’t play well.

“I’m actually very thankful I don’t have to put myself through that for another two days,” Thompson wrote in an Instagram post after her round.

Thompson also posted photos showing some of the lies she had to deal with after hitting what she thought were good shots.
