Legion XIII Crowned 2025 LIV Golf Team Champions After Thrilling Playoff Victory
Modest Golf client Tyrrell Hatton and Legion XIII capped off a remarkable 2025 LIV Golf season last night by winning the Team Championship in dramatic fashion, defeating Crushers GC in a sudden-death playoff at The Cardinal at Saint John’s in Michigan. The victory marked the team’s first ever Championship crown, adding to an already historic campaign.
The final day saw Legion XIII tied at –20 with Crushers GC, forcing a playoff to decide the champions. Led by Captain Jon Rahm and teammate Tyrrell Hatton, the duo delivered clutch birdies on consecutive holes to secure the title against Bryson DeChambeau and Paul Casey. Their composure under pressure was matched by strong performances from rising stars Caleb Surratt and Tom McKibbin, whose low scores earlier in the day set the stage for the team’s playoff heroics.
The win capped off a dominant season for Legion XIII, who joined LIV Golf as an expansion franchise just last year. In 2025, the team claimed four regular-season titles, while Jon Rahm captured his second consecutive Individual Championship, underscoring the depth, consistency, and firepower of the squad. The Team Championship triumph cements Legion XIII’s status as one of the premier forces in professional golf.
“This season has been a dream for all of us,” Hatton. “From our young players stepping up in big moments to John and I closing out the playoff tonight, this win is a testament to the team spirit we’ve built. To finish the year as champions is something truly special.”
With their victory, Legion XIII wrote their name into LIV Golf history as one of the most successful new teams in the league’s short but fast-growing story.
