CRUSHERS GC REVIEW
TEAM: Crushers GC had another outstanding season, coming up just shy of their second LIV Golf Team Championship in three seasons. The Crushers gave the champion Legion XIII all they could handle before Bryson DeChambeau and Paul Casey eventually lost to Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton on the second playoff hole. The regular season was also a success, as the Crushers finished second in the season-long standings to Legion XIII, earning three consecutive wins in Korea, Virginia and Dallas. They finished inside of the points in 11 of 12 events.

PLAYERS (FINAL POINTS RANKING)
Bryson DeChambeau (3): DeChambeau had his highest finish in the season-long standings in his four seasons on LIV Golf, finishing in the bonus-paying third position. The Crushers GC captain earned a victory at LIV Golf Korea by two shots over teammate Charles Howell III. His season included six top-10 finishes in addition to top-10 finishes at The Masters (T5), the PGA Championship (T2) and The Open Championship (T10). DeChambeau’s star continued to ascend both on and off the golf course, as his YouTube channel and ability to connect with fans has made him of the most recognizable players in the game.
Paul Casey (16): Casey has proven himself to be a reliable teammate to his captain and is one of the most consistent players in the league. Casey had four top-10 finishes and almost earned his first LIV Golf individual win before falling to Patrick Reed at LIV Golf Dallas in a four-man playoff. Casey led LIV Golf in Strokes Gained: Approach and finished inside of the Lock Zone for the second consecutive year.
Charles Howell III (21): Howell III was a formidable member of Crushers GC, emphasizing the team’s depth. The steady veteran had only two top-10 finishes but finished inside of the points (top 24) on six occasions. He finished inside the top-5 in two of the Crusher GC’s team wins, exemplifying just how important he is to the team.
Anirban Lahiri (25): Lahiri finished just outside of the Lock Zone for the first time in his LIV Golf career, but just barely. He proved once again that he is a reliable and consistent contributor to the Crushers and is supplies what many LIV Golf teams are missing: an anchor on the back end of the lineup to keep things steady. Lahiri’s individual LIV Golf career has been a success but one full of heartbreaks. After multiple close calls in his first three seasons, Lahiri had another close call at LIV Golf Virginia. He had a two-stroke lead through 36 holes but eventually finished one shot short of the inevitable Joaquin Niemann.
