BIO

Tyrrell Hatton has been in the top 50 of the world rankings since his first European Tour win at the 2016 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. He went on to retain that title in 2017 and then won the following week at the Italian Open. He did not manage a win in 2018 however got back to winning ways at the 2019 Turkish Airlines Open.

2020 was the first year Hatton predominantly played on the PGA Tour and won his maiden title in tough conditions at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. A successful Fed Ex Cup playoffs followed by a win at the BMW PGA Championship meant he finished the season ranked 10th in the world.

Hatton had a reputation for losing his temper quite easily, especially in the early days of his career, but appears to have improved significantly in that department and is now as mentally strong as any of his competitors. He broke into the worlds top 5 with his win in Abu Dhabi but a quiet 2021 by his standards saw him slip out of the top 20 by the last event..

Turned 30 in October 2021.

Significant Quotes

​The Masters, 2020
Q. Why are you playing so well? What has been the biggest difference‑maker?
TYRRELL HATTON: It's kind of a hard question to answer. I think one of the biggest things for me this year is I've been pain‑free the whole year after the wrist surgery. After last year, that's been a huge thing for me. I've been training in the gym this year, which is something I've not done for this amount of time previously. So, you know, who knows if that's kind of playing a part, as well (shrugging shoulders). But yeah, obviously I'm kind of very happy with how things have gone so far, aside from missed the cut in both majors.
