championship ring

Athlete's ultimate prize

A championship ring is a ring awarded to members of a winning team in professional or collegiate sports, commemorating a league title or tournament victory.

These rings are typically large, ornate, and encrusted with gems and team insignia.

In American sports culture, players often measure career success by how many rings they've won: He's got three rings.
