Staff WriterCrushers GC have looked at the LIV Golf calendar for 2026 and decided the smartest move is the simplest one: keep the engine intact and see who can keep up. The team confirmed the return of Paul Casey and Anirban Lahiri, meaning they’ll once again line up alongside captain Bryson DeChambeau and Charles Howell III after a 2025 season that finished with the satisfying thump of three straight team wins — Korea, Virginia, Dallas — like a drummer hitting the same note until the stadium starts shaking.
And DeChambeau, never a man to whisper when he can broadcast, framed the decision as less “run it back” and more “raise the ceiling.”
“Keeping this core together for 2026 positions us to build on the momentum we carried out of 2025,” DeChambeau said. “This group knows what it takes to win; we lifted the trophy in 2023 and finished second last season, and that experience fuels our drive to compete at the top week in and week out.
We’re a team of competitors, creators, and leaders who take pride in pushing the game forward, and having this group return gives us continuity, confidence, and a clear direction as we raise our standards heading into next season.”
A team identity: equal parts scoring and showmanship
If some teams feel assembled, Crushers GC feel branded — by design. Their stated identity leans into inspiration, energy and creativity, with DeChambeau as the frontman: elite-level power golf, yes, but also a modern, creator-first approach that treats fans like participants rather than bystanders.
In plain terms: they want to win, and they want you watching while they do it.
DeChambeau: the headline act still hits like a freight train
DeChambeau’s 2025 told the whole story. He won individually in Korea, finished third in the season-long individual Championship race, and led the same four-man unit through that three-event tear that turned “nice season” into “proper problem.” When Crushers GC run hot, they don’t just edge teams — they lean on them.
Casey: the metronome in the middle of the chaos
Every roster needs its stabiliser, and Casey remains that steadying force: the reliable heartbeat that keeps a team from wandering off into the weeds. His track record reads like a passport: 21 wins, 13 countries, and two decades of showing up with the same professional seriousness.
Last season, he added four top-10s and came painfully close in Dallas, finishing runner-up after a four-man playoff. For Crushers GC, Casey’s precision and competitive IQ are not decoration — they’re infrastructure.
Lahiri: the quiet work that turns into points
Lahiri enters his fourth full season with Crushers GC as the dependable presence at the back end of the lineup — the player who keeps the base solid when the headlines float elsewhere. He is also simply one of the most decorated Indian professionals in the modern era, with 18 professional wins worldwide and a reputation as a trailblazer across tours and continents.
Howell III: dependable, battle-tested, and sneaky-dangerous
Howell III’s value is often measured in what he doesn’t do: he doesn’t disappear, he doesn’t panic, and he doesn’t give away points. In 2025, he logged six top-24 points finishes and produced two top-5 results in three team wins — the sort of contribution that gets felt in the standings long before it gets celebrated on highlight reels.
He’s also the only other Crusher, besides DeChambeau, to win an individual LIV Golf title — Mayakoba in 2023 — which is another way of saying this isn’t a passenger. This is a man who can drive.
The numbers: Crushers GC are already in the history book
With the full 2025 roster returning, Crushers GC head into 2026 tied as the winningest team in LIV Golf history: eight regular-season team titles plus one Team Championship. That’s not a promise; that’s precedent — and it’s exactly the kind of foundation that turns a “roster update” into a warning shot.
Off-course power: partners, platform, and visibility
Crushers GC aren’t just building a team; they’re building a commercial machine. The group continues to expand its partner roster, anchored by HSBC, Reebok, Qualcomm, and others — a sign of a team positioning itself at the crossroads of sport, culture, technology, media and global business.
