Tyrrell Hatton has long been known as one of the most colorful players on the PGA Tour. No, I'm not talking about his attire, but his actions and words used on the course.
Huttons unusual behavior And his raw language made him a fan favorite.
On Sunday's Sentry, the British That's it again Leave the fans looking in the mirror. It didn't take long either.
Hutton's second shot on the par-4 first came horribly short. He knew that too.
“Go! Go! Go! Asshole,” Hatton was captured saying.
Despite his poor approach shot, he kept going up and down to save par. Since then, Hatton has continued to play well, with birdies on the second and fifth holes to move into a tie for 10th place with a total of 18 under. That's three strokes off the lead, currently held by Chris Kirk, but with so many players between him and the lead, the trophy is likely out of reach.
Despite this, his colorful words still caused surprising reactions from fans.
I love him, he reminds me of myself when I play him.

Almost everyone on X (formerly Twitter) has the same reaction. Hatton reminds them of himself when he's out on the course.
I'm sure I said this in words several times on the course – rhythm and tone as well.

I know I'm no exception. I myself swear like a truck driver when I take a shot like that.
