Tyrrell Hatton has shown that he is a man of strong character, and a person who sometimes goes beyond the norm, with the desire to win. The 33-year-old golfer celebrated at the Dubai Desert Classic last weekend in strong competition. It is interesting that the English golfer at one point received a harsh warning from the tournament officials after he smashed a tee marker.

What is even more interesting, Hatton said afterwards: I don't want to be boring like everyone else.
The 33-year-old caused reactions from colleagues and fans after a great performance and an interesting situation.
Rory McIlroy reacts
Rory McIlroy, who was also part of this tournament, had only words of praise for the Englishman, stressing that his consistency is the most important thing. Rory, on the other hand, puts special emphasis on Hatton's statements, feeling that it is a great thing that Hatton does not care about the criticism and opinions of others.
"Hes become very consistent. He does things his own way. He plays within his capabilities, -he said, as quoted by Express.
He hits the ball very straight, he doesnt try to shape it really one way or another. Hits it really straight and it looks like he has his sort of systems and the way he practices.

He does a really good job at that. He also doesnt give a flying fig what anyone else thinks which is a really good attribute to have in the game. Hell be amazing in New York. Hes proved that over the last three Ryder Cups. Hes a massive asset for the European team.
The Northern Irishman also wants to have that mindset, aware that with such a mindset, many things open up for him. McIlroy is often the target of criticism from both fans and the media. However, it seems that the experienced golfer is a more sensitive person, who sometimes has a hard time with various epithets and narratives.
Rory, on the other hand, admitted last year that he wants to change himself in that aspect.
