The LIV Golf Series has upended the golf spectrum for fans and players alike. While it cost a crucial divide in the golf world, the league brought about some major inclusions unheard of in the sport.

Among them is the mainstream introduction of team golf, which has found backers from many quarters within the golf community. It has also become a relishing aspect for LIV golfers, especially for Kevin Na and his Iron Heads compatriots.

However, while things might look bleak on the outside, the team is reportedly sharing a good time. The team captain, 39-year-old Na, recently made the revelation, where he revealed that his team would rank at the top for squad chemistry.

“We’re like a family. We go out to dinners, we travel together,” he claimed. Furthermore, Na revealed how the absence of collegiate golf voided him of team golf early in his career. “It’s golf… it’s such an individual sport, and I didn’t go to college. I didn’t play college golf… to be a part of a team, it’s so much fun and we have, what I say, one of the best chemistry teams out there and we love practice rounds, we love dinners, we love giving each other, we have a group chat going and we’re really enjoying it,” he said.
