The LPGA Tour is losing nine veteran players under the age 40, including four major champions. Lexi Thompson has said this will be her last full-time season. She's still not exactly sure what that means. Brittany Lincicome played her last tournament as a full-time player last week. Both won the Kraft Nabisco out in the California desert.

Two-time major winner Brittany Lincicome announced she was done, making her farewell last week at Pelican Golf Club. She said she likely would play at the Chevron, one of the smaller fields and the major she won twice as the Kraft Nabisco. The surprise was Marina Alex, 34, who kept her decision to a small group of family and friends who cheered her on the 18th at the CME Group Tour Championship, and by then word had spread. She won two times in her 11 seasons on the LPGA, and played in one Solheim Cup.
Scheffler won eight times this year, including his Olympic gold medal and a Masters green jacket. He won The Players Championship and the FedEx Cup, along with four signature events. On the ballot for PGA Tour rookie of the year are Nick Dunlap, Max Greyserman, Matthieu Pavon of France and Jake Knapp. All but Greyserman won this year. Dunlap was an amateur when he won The American Express, and he won again at the Barracuda Championship .With so much attention on the smaller field sizes next year on the PGA Tour, one field is increasing.
