Teamwork pays off for Rahm with LIV playoff victory

Spaniard Rahm and Englishman Tyrrell Hatton each birdied the final two holes of regulation, then ended the playoff with a pair of birdies on the second extra hole against DeChambeau and Paul Casey. 

Rahm made a six-footer and Hatton had a short putt for the deciding birdies.

Caleb Surratt led Legion XIII with a 64, Rahm and Tom McKibbin each shot 65, and Hatton had a 66.

DeChambeau shot 62, Casey and Anirban Lahiri had 65s, and Charles Howell III closed with a 68. Howell birdied five of the first seven holes, then dropped three strokes.

Rahm helped Legion III take the team event a week after successfully defending his LIV Golf season points title in Indiana, a tournament where he closed with a 60 before losing a playoff to Sebastian Munoz.
