Cameron Smith at the LIV Golf Team Championship: "We've got the best fans"
The four members of the Ripper GC team are Australian, so they dedicated a few words to their fans after winning the LIV Golf Team Championship. Here's what captain Cameron Smith had to say (via ASAP Sports):
"We've got great support. We're in Dallas, Texas, at the moment, and the amount of Ripper hats that I see around is pretty cool. We've got the best fans and the best traveling fans. They're everywhere."
Ripper GC finished the regular season in third place with 151 points, behind Crushers GC and Legion XIII. These were their results during the regular season:

- Adelaide: Winners
- Singapore: Winners
- Houston: 10th

Thanks to their position in the season rankings, Cameron Smith's team was seeded in the semifinals and did not have to play in the quarterfinals. When the time came, they chose Sergio Garcia's Fireballs GC as their opponent.
Ripper GC played their semifinal matchup with Marc Leishman facing Eugenio Chacarra in the first singles match and Lucas Herbert facing David Puig in the second. Smith and Matt Jones played Garcia and Abraham Ancer in the foursomes.
The Australians lost the foursomes but won both singles matches to beat their rivals two points to one.
