England’s professional golfer Tyrrell Hatton, ranked 23rd globally, maintains that he is set in his ways and comfortable with expressing frustration on the golf course. Known for his colorful language during challenging rounds, Hatton, who secured a fourth-place finish at the recent US Open, has faced criticism for his behavior but displayed composure during The Open at Royal Portrush, where he sits three strokes behind the leader at five under par.
Despite questions about toning down his reactions, Hatton admitted to maintaining his vocal nature, albeit away from microphones. He emphasized his unwillingness to change his approach at the age of 33, acknowledging his tendency to get worked up but asserting his ability to refocus swiftly for the next shot. While outwardly appearing agitated, Hatton believes he can maintain clarity in his mind to achieve his goals on the course.
During his round, Hatton navigated challenges, including a bogey on the fifth hole, rebounding with birdies to maintain his momentum. Reflecting on his performance, he expressed some frustration with his ball-striking but acknowledged the positives in his game. Looking ahead, Hatton aims to improve his accuracy off the tee and proximity to the pins in the upcoming rounds.
