Yet despite finishing his three rounds with an impressive eight under par, it was a moment of rage that went viral on social media.

After a disappointing drive that narrowly missed the fairway, Hatton could be heard furiously ranting.

And the live coverage astonishingly stayed with him despite viewers clearly hearing his expletive-ridden remarks.

He said: “F***ing what a w*** bounce that was.

If it f***ing bounces left it’s fine. “F*** you, f***ing c***.”

During the choice language, the camera even zoomed in on Hatton as he threw away his tee in frustration.

And those on X were left in stitches at Hatton – who is known as one of the angriest golfers in the sport.

One golf fan said: “Tyrell is the most relatable sportsman of the modern era.”

A third replied: “This is the single best moment in the history of LIV.”

And a fourth responded: “A round of golf with him would be priceless. Add Rahm and Dahmen and you got must-see TV.”

Hatton finished three shots adrift of South African Dean Burmester and Spain’s Sergio Garcia – both of whom ended Sunday’s round on 11 under.

Burmester, 34, then went on to beat Garcia in the play-off to seal victory.
