LIV Golf is still somewhat in its initial phase, as the 2022–2023 season was just its second one so far. The league has overcome many challenges in its two seasons and has witnessed a new ray of hope with all the feats and popularity coming its way. The most recent being the league’s popularity that Bryson DeChambeau brought with his historic win with a score of 58 in Greenbrier.

LIV star Brooks Koepka has also made his way to the USA Ryder Cup team, despite all the speculation. The milestones that the Saudi League achieved were not only professional but personal as well, especially for one particular LIV star. The Indian boring Saudi-league pro now opens up about the kind of relationships he has formed with his teammates and how DeChambeau has been a pillar of support throughout.

LIV Golf defector praises Bryson DeChambeau and his fellow golfers

It has been over a year since Anirban Lahiri joined the Sauid-funded league, and his shot in the dark has proved to be very fruitful for him. Back when he joined the Crushers GC, he did not know anyone on his team but his team’s skipper, Bryson DeChambeau.

But now that the golfer has spent one year with Paul Casey and Charles Howell III, he cannot help but regard them as his brothers. The Indian-origin golfer recently bestowed his teammates with the kindest words and said, “I won’t have it any other way after spending the last one year with Crushers.”

The 36-year-old then said even “phenomenal is not even a good enough word” to describe how he feels. Complimenting his teammates, he said, “We are more than teammates, we are solid support systems that are so needed at this level of sports.”

The golfer explicitly praised his captain as well and referred to him as an “inspirational captain.” He said that even when Mr. 58 was going through his struggles, he was “completely invested” in the team and even asked about their well-being. Extending his praise further for the Crushers GC skipper, Lahiri said, “He has been very open and inclusive.”

Lahiri’s journey to LIV Golf has not been easy, as it started on a bit of a rocky road because of his personal “anxiety” issues, but he persevered through it.

Being a golfer of Indian origin, it was not an easy decision for Lahiri to break with the traditional ways and join the Saudi League. When he joined the league, he was not really sure what the league would bring forward or if his decision would turn out to be fruitful. But he took the leap, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions of his life.

He opened up that when he made the decision to join the Backway League, he was going through a lot of changes in his personal life, and the decision was filled with “anxiety”. He had recently shifted from the US to Dubai, and then he lost his mother-in-law. Now, however, things are much better for the Indian golfer, and he undoubtedly feels like they will only get better.
