MIAMI - India's Anirban Lahiri said that he was "pumped up" as he fired a seven-under 65 in leading Bryson DeChambeau's Crushers to the LIV Golf team championship on Sunday, as the Saudi-backed golf series entered an off-season of uncertainty.

'Pumped up' Lahiri leads Crushers to LIV title

The 36-year-old had five birdies and an eagle at Doral in the fourplayer total stroke team final with teammates DeChambeau finishing on 67, fellow American Charles Howell on 72 and England's Paul Casey on 73.

"I was really pumped up," Lahiri said. "I wasn't tense at all. I had a couple of Sundays (this season) when I let myself down, but I wasn't going let the team down today." Crushers finished on 277 to defeat two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson's Range Goats by two strokes with Torque, captained by Chile's Joaquin Niemann, third on 282.

DeChambeau sank long birdie putts at the par-three 13th and 15th holes, then made another at the par-four 16 after his tee shot landed on an adjacent hole to keep the Crushers ahead.

"I can't be happier with this team of mine," the 2020 US Open champion said.
