As a 14-year-old in 2009, she qualified for a third time for the [[2009 U.S. Women's Open|U.S. Women's Open]] and made the cut for the first time, finishing tied for 34th, +11 (71-73-78-73=295).<ref name="2009open">{{cite web |publisher=LPGA |url=https://www.lpga.com/tournaments/us-womens-open/results?filters=2009 |title=2009 U.S. Women's Open Leaderboard |access-date=March 27, 2023}}</ref> Later that year she Monday-qualified for the [[Navistar LPGA Classic]], where she shot 65 in the first round and finished tied for 27th, 12 strokes behind winner, [[Lorena Ochoa]].<ref name="2009navistar">{{cite web |publisher=LPGA |url=http://www.lpgascoring.com/18461/leaderboard/leaderboard.html |title=2009 Navistar LPGA Classic Leaderboard |access-date=2010-06-19}}</ref>

===2010===
Thompson announced that she had turned professional on June 16, 2010. She signed sponsorship deals with [[Cobra Golf|Cobra-PUMA Golf]] and with [[Red Bull]].<ref name="turnedpro" /><ref name="red bull">{{cite web |website=NewJerseyNewsRoom.com |first=Andrew |last=Lagomarsino |url=http://www.newjerseynewsroom.com/professional/shoprite-lpga-classic-paula-creamer-and-alexis-thompson-a-bit-of-agony-and-ecstasy |title=ShopRite LPGA Classic: Paula Creamer and Alexis Thompson ... a bit of agony and ecstasy |date=2010-06-17 |access-date=2010-06-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100619124650/http://www.newjerseynewsroom.com/professional/shoprite-lpga-classic-paula-creamer-and-alexis-thompson-a-bit-of-agony-and-ecstasy |archive-date=June 19, 2010}}</ref>

Lacking official status as an LPGA Tour member, Thompson largely had to rely on sponsors' exemptions to gain entry into tournaments. Her first sponsor's exemption was entry into the [[ShopRite LPGA Classic]] where she missed the cut by four strokes.<ref name="2010shoprite">{{cite magazine |url=http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-digest-woman/blogs/golf-digest-woman/2010/06/meanwhile-on-the-other-coast-c.html |title=Meanwhile, on the other coast, Creamer is back |magazine=Golf Digest|first=Stina |last=Sternberg |date=June 19, 2010 |access-date=June 19, 2010}}</ref>

She played qualifiers held in Florida in May to gain entry to the [[U.S. Women's Open]] played July 8–11. She finished T10 at the tournament, +6 (73-74-70-73=290), nine shots behind winner [[Paula Creamer]], and collected her first professional check for $72,131.<ref name="2010usopen">{{cite web |publisher=USGA |url=http://www.uswomensopen.com/scoring2010/dyn/alllb.html |title=65th U.S. Women's Open Championship – Round 4 Full Leaderboard |date=July 11, 2010 |access-date=November 23, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100714022406/http://www.uswomensopen.com/scoring2010/dyn/alllb.html |archive-date=July 14, 2010}}</ref>

====Petition to LPGA====
In December 2010, Thompson petitioned the LPGA to allow her to play in up to 12 LPGA tournaments in 2011 using sponsor exemptions instead of the six allowed to non-members by LPGA rules. In January 2011, Commissioner Mike Whan denied Thompson's petition, but announced that the LPGA rules would be changed to allow non-members to participate in Monday qualifying. In effect this gave Thompson the opportunity to play in more than 12 tournaments in 2011.<ref name="mqpetition">{{Cite news |work=The Golf Channel |first=Randall |last=Mell |url=http://www.thegolfchannel.com/tour-insider/lpga-denies-thompsons-petition-sponsor-exemptions-41053/ |title=LPGA denies Thompson's petition for more sponsor exemptions |date=January 14, 2011 |access-date=February 5, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110126012519/http://www.thegolfchannel.com/tour-insider/lpga-denies-thompsons-petition-sponsor-exemptions-41053/ |archive-date=January 26, 2011}}</ref>

Thompson began playing in one-day tournaments in October 2010 on the [[Fuzion Minor League Golf Tour]], a developmental tour aimed at men trying to move up to the next level of professional golf. On the Fuzion Tour, women play with tees moved up so that they play 94% of the distance that the men play.<ref name="fuzionsetup">{{cite news |work=NBC Sports |first=Ryan |last=Ballengee |url=http://progolftalk.nbcsports.com/2011/02/22/lexi-thompson-takes-down-a-mens-mini-tour-event-at-florida-home-course/ |title=Lexi Thompson takes down a men's mini tour event at Florida home course |date=2011-02-22 |access-date=2011-02-24 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110226163407/http://progolftalk.nbcsports.com/2011/02/22/lexi-thompson-takes-down-a-mens-mini-tour-event-at-florida-home-course/ |archive-date=February 26, 2011}}</ref> She returned to play against women in February 2011 at the [[Women's Australian Open]] and the [[ANZ Ladies Masters]], where she missed the cut and finished T42 respectively.

Thompson's first LPGA tournament in [[2011 LPGA Tour|2011]] was the [[Avnet LPGA Classic]], with a sponsor's exemption. After three rounds, she was tied for the lead with [[Song-Hee Kim]]. On Sunday, her score soared to 78, including back-to-back double bogeys on the 14th and 15th holes. Thompson finished tied for 19th at −1 (71-71-67-78=287), nine strokes behind the winner, [[Maria Hjorth]].<ref name="avnet2011">{{cite magazine |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/golf/wires/05/01/2070.ap.glf.lpga.tour.0149/ |title=Hjorth wins Avnet LPGA Classic, Thompson slides |magazine=Sports Illustrated |agency=Associated Press |date=May 1, 2011 |access-date=2011-05-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121104065146/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/golf/wires/05/01/2070.ap.glf.lpga.tour.0149/ |archive-date=November 4, 2012}}</ref> She missed the cut at the ShopRite LPGA Classic, at the [[LPGA Championship]] and at the U.S. Women's Open and tried but failed to Monday-qualify at the [[State Farm Classic]].

In August, she finished T31 at the [[Safeway Classic]] and then missed the cut at the [[Canadian Women's Open]]. In September, she won her first LPGA tournament, the [[Navistar LPGA Classic]], by a five-stroke margin over LPGA Tour rookie [[Tiffany Joh]].

On December 17, 2011, Thompson won the [[Dubai Ladies Masters]], an event on the [[Ladies European Tour]] (LET), with a four-stroke margin.

<sup>1</sup> Earnings and top-10s prior to 2012 are unofficial because Thompson was not an LPGA member.<br>
<sup>2</sup> Official 2012 earnings do not include $23,107 from T14 finish at the [[Honda LPGA Thailand]]. LPGA rules specify that earnings by players who gain entrance to an international tournament using a sponsor's exemption are unofficial.
