GAINESVILLE, Va. — Although the spotlight is typically on Crushers GC captain Bryson DeChambeau, and rightfully so, it was another Crushers GC player that charged to the top of the leaderboard on Super Saturday at LIV Golf Virginia.
Anirban Lahiri, who has four runner-up finishes without a win on LIV Golf, shot a brilliant 7-under 64 to seize control of the individual leaderboard. The 37-year-old made seven birdies without a blemish on the scorecard. Lahiri made a 39-foot par putt on the 16th hole to salvage his momentum and converted another miraculous par on the 18th after having to get up-and-down from over 100 yards away in the rough.

A trio of veterans, Graeme McDowell, Bubba Watson and Martin Kaymer, also announced their presence on the leaderboard heading into Sunday’s final round. At 9-under par, they find themselves just two shots back of Lahiri.
McDowell, who’s never finished better than T5 in any LIV Golf event, shot a 5-under par with birdies on Nos. 15, 16 and 17 to catapult himself up the leaderboard. Watson, captain of RangeGoats GC, made birdies on 17 and 18 before finishing with pars on Nos. 1 and 2 to finish his round. Kaymer has played steady golf all week and kept himself in the mix with a 67 after sharing the first-round lead with DeChambeau.

McDowell, 47, Watson, 48, and Kaymer, 40, will all have a fantastic opportunity to challenge for their first LIV Golf win.

Smash GC had an excellent day, tying the team lead (-20) with the Lahiri-led Crushers. All four Smash players shot under par with Talor Gooch and Jason Kokrak both shooting 67 to go along with McDowell’s 66. Paul Casey played an inspired round for the Crushers, shooting a 5-under-66.
LIV Golf’s top three in the individual standings: Joaquin Niemann, DeChambeau and Jon Rahm all are within striking distance. The three are tied for fifth at 7 under and just four off the lead.
Lahiri, Watson and McDowell will play in Sunday’s final group, as tee times have been moved up due to weather.
