“Crown a winner” is an expression that means, “to declare a winner” (of a competition). In this expression “to crown” is a verb. Picture a judge placing a crown on the head of the winner of a competition.

That means, we decided who was the winner. (Didn’t hear? Make sure to click through to see who we crowned.)
