La Sasso entered the tournament with only one career top-30 finish at LIV Golf (a T12). He triumphed with four strong rounds (71-60-66-65) and withstood a furious comeback from Rahm, who shot a 63 (-7), the best score of the day, finishing second at -17. The Basque, already assured of his third consecutive Individual Championship before the Indianapolis event, pushed until the final hole, but La Sasso’s solid 65, capped with a birdie on the par-5 18th, was enough. The 22-year-old admitted he was still shaken and lost for words: «I don’t even know what to say. I’m shaking, to be honest. It was incredible. I played well all day and waited for my moment, which finally came.» The night before, he had confided to the team’s social media staff that it would be his week: «I said it and I made it happen. The fact that it actually happened is crazy.» He also emphasized the joy of having his parents present for his first professional victory. Sergio García and Bryson DeChambeau finished tied for third at 16 points (with 65 and 64, respectively). DeChambeau explained that he played well without any major errors and gained some momentum in the return round, but that he didn’t get enough putts in. He also praised the comeback from Rahm, whom he had played with in the opening round. Scott Vincent, Laurie Canter, and Richard T. Lee finished tied for fifth at -15; Lee matched the day’s best score with a 63.

On the team front, Legion XIII controlled the competition from start to finish. Rahm’s 63 contributed to a day total of 270, bringing the team to -44 overall and a six-shot victory over HyFlyers GC (-38, boosted by La Sasso’s individual performance). Ripper GC finished third at -36, while 4Aces GC rounded out the top three at -32. The Team Championship victory gives Legion XIII their second consecutive title and puts an exclamation point on Rahm’s season, who already won his third Individual Championship before adding the team crown to the final event of the year.
