Lexi Thompson forced to comment on slow play again after being put on the clock again at the Women’s PGA Championship

Thompson is renowned the world over for not being the quickest and she recently came under fire at the US Open for her pace of play.

At the time, Thompson defended her actions on pace of play but nevertheless, the mood was set.

That’s now continued into this week’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship and once again, Thompson and her group were put on the clock midway through the round.

However, there is no doubt she is on the slow side of play and now, she’s been forced by the media to defend herself again.

“Uh-huh. Yeah, we were on the clock. We were warned and then put on the clock for maybe two to three holes, two and a half holes, something like that,” Thompson admitted.

“Yeah, it’s not ideal out there, especially when it’s super windy and you have to back off shots because of gusts and everything like that. But it happens. I mean, we fell maybe a hole behind. I didn’t think that we were playing — I mean, we were playing slow. It took three hours to play the front nine.
