The Crushers captain’s game had been trending in the right direction recently, finishing 5th and T2 in his last two events on the global golf circuit, and now DeChambeau has returned to the LIV Golf winner’s circle for the first time since 2023. It’s also the two-time major winner’s first victory anywhere since the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst.

On the team side of the scoreboard, DeChambeau and Howell’s 1-2 finish led Crushers GC to a resounding final round comeback. Starting the day six shots off the lead, the Crushers finished the day a collective 20 under par – a full 12 strokes better than any other team in the field.

“We played great today, Sunday Crushers is back,” said DeChambeau. “I’m super proud of them … I’m so proud of ‘Chucky’ the way he played, seeing that type of grit, that’s why I have him on the team, it’s why I have every one of them.”

Howell (63), DeChambeau (66), Paul Casey (67) and Anirban Lahiri (72) finished at 35 under overall, earning their first team victory of the season, with Brooks Koepka’s Smash GC taking second place at 26 under and Joaquin Niemann’s Torque GC finishing in third at 18 under.

Next stop on the LIV Golf League is LIV Golf DC June 6-8 at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club.
