Tom McKibbin says his first year with LIV Golf has been "incredible" after helping Legion XIII win the team championship in Michigan.

The 22-year-old Northern Irishman and team captain Jon Rahm both carded rounds of 65, with Caleb Surratt leading the way on 64 and England's Tyrrell Hatton shooting 66 to force a play-off with Bryson DeChambeau's Crushers as both teams finished 20 under.

Rahm - who retained the LIV individual title last week - and Hatton birdied the second play-off hole against DeChambeau and England's Paul Casey at the Cardinal at St John's to see their team home.

McKibbin, who made the switch to LIV this year, earned $1.4m (£1m) for the team championship win, and reflected on an "incredible year" on the Saudi-backed tour.

"Getting to spend it with these three guys has been incredible," McKibbin said of his team-mates.

"I've learned so much and just being around them has been really good. The whole year has been special and today was a really cool day to go out there.

"You're out there on your own, but playing for three other guys, so to come out on top in the first year is really cool."

McKibbin initially looked set to join the PGA Tour after claiming a tour card last November, but in January confirmed he would instead switch to LIV to team up with Rahm's Legion XIII team.

He says playing alongside the former world number one and Hatton has made him a "better player" as he contributed to five team wins on the way to the overall championship.

"I'm very thankful to be a part of this team and to learn from two guys who are phenomenal players," McKibbin said.

"Just watching the play-off, seeing those shots coming in and how clutch those guys are in those situations. I have learned a lot off both of them and I've become a better player because of it.

"Getting paired with some people in the tournament, people you've watched on TV, I've learned from them.

"Some of the golf courses were trickier than I'm used to, so getting a feel for those and develop my game through that. A lot of small things adds up to a big difference."

England's Hatton put some difficult moments behind him on Sunday to birdie 17 and 18, which helped bring the decider to a play-off.

A chip shot in the second play-off hole set him up for a tap-in birdie after Rahm had also birdied, which sealed the win.

"When I made bogey on 16, that wasn't ideal so I tried my best to have a good finish and it was nice to hole the one on 17 - my longest of the day - and then the pressure putt on 18 and the first play-off hole," said Hatton.

"It was good to see those go in and keep our hopes alive. It was a nice wedge shot in the second play-off hole and always nice when you can just tap those in."
