PLYMOUTH, Mich. — Bryson DeChambeau<\/a> made an 8-foot birdie putt on his final hole Saturday to beat Talor Gooch<\/a> and send his Crushers team into the LIV Golf League final against Jon Rahm<\/a>‘s team and the Stinger squad from South Africa.<\/p>\n Rahm, whose Legion XIII narrowly got out of the quarterfinals despite his singles loss to Adrian Meronk<\/a>, defeated Phil Mickelson<\/a>, and Legion XIII won the foursomes match to eliminate the HyFlyers.<\/p>\n Crushers got the other point needed from Paul Casey<\/a> and Charles Howell III<\/a> making two birdies on the last three holes for a 2-up win in foursomes. Brooks Koepka<\/a> got the only point for Smash by beating Anirban Lahiri<\/a>. That put the pressure on DeChambeau, who was all square with Gooch until winning with a birdie.<\/p>\n Legion XIII had four team wins and Crushers had three as they were Nos. 1 and 2 in the team standings this year.<\/p>\n They will be joined in the Sunday final by Stinger, which was No. 7 in the regular-season standings but took down Sergio Garcia<\/a>‘s team in the quarterfinals and beat Joaqu\u00edn Niemann<\/a> and his Torque team in the semifinals.<\/p>\n Sunday shifts from match play — two singles and a foursomes match — to stroke play in which the scores of all four players will count. The other teams play for various positions.<\/p>\n Crushers won the team title two years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aug 23, 2025, 02:29 PM ET PLYMOUTH, Mich. — Bryson DeChambeau made an 8-foot birdie putt on his…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":92544,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[443],"tags":[49,48,622,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-92543","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-golf","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92543"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92543\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92544"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
