The sports world witnessed a unique kind of celebration at LIV Golf last year. Talor Gooch was met with an NBA-styled gesture from Greg Norman, who went as far as going down on his knees. Don’t take it the wrong way. The golfer was just presented with a ring following his feat as the Individual Champion. Well, it seems there was a similar gift for the Team Championship winners as well.

The 2023 LIV Golf season saw Bryson DeChambeau’s Crushers GC take home the win at the final event in Miami. However, along with the trophy and the prize money, it appears they were also awarded with a glittering jewel, earning the awe of many in the community!

A post was shared on the official X handle of the Saudi-backed league showcasing the gifts presented to the Team Championship winners in Miami. The tweet consists of two pictures, one with the skipper’s ring and the other with the four bands of all the teammates presented together.

The jewels are engraved with the 30-year-old’s team’s logo along with the name of each member and the wording “TEAM CHAMPIONS 2023” on the side. However, Gooch was presented with a ring that had the LIV Golf logo on its face.
