Roster
Talor Gooch (USA, captain)
Gooch is in his third season with Smash GC and his first as captain, a well deserved honor for the consistent LIV standout. He has four individual league titles, including three in 2023, when he won the Individual Championship as a member of RangeGoats GC.
The proud Oklahoman has also racked up plenty of hardware in the team competition, contributing to seven team titles. Gooch has finished in the Lock Zone in each of his first four LIV seasons, ending up no worse than 11th in the individual standings.
Jason Kokrak (USA)
A man whose big-hitting reputation once earned him the nickname “Bomber,” Kokrak has been a staple of Smash GC since the inaugural LIV season. He has several top-10 finishes, placing 23rd in the individual standings in 2023 and 22nd in 2024. Canadian born but proudly American since his early teens, Kokrak is also a three-time PGA Tour winner.
Graeme McDowell (NIR)
McDowell is one of the few Europeans to crack the American stranglehold on the U.S. Open with his grinding win at Pebble Beach in 2010. A couple of months later, the Northern Irishman holed the vital putt in the anchor match of the Ryder Cup to clinch the trophy for Europe.
A winner of over 15 professional tournaments, McDowell is in his third season with Smash GC after spending two seasons with Cleeks Golf Club. "G-Mac" became the first player to make two hole-in-ones in his LIV Golf career, recording an ace in back-to-back weeks in Hong Kong and Singapore early this season.
Harold Varner III (USA)
The man known as HV3 has played in every season of LIV Golf. In 2023, he won the event in Washington D.C. and finished the year seventh in the individual standings. His first top-tier professional victory came in the 2016 Australian PGA Championship, when he shot a final-round 65 to finish the tournament 19-under.
A native of Gastonia, North Carolina, Varner was a standout golfer while studying at East Carolina University and became the first player to win both the North Carolina Amateur Championship and North Carolina Amateur Match Play Championship in the same year in 2011.
