Hatton has been a fixture on the last three European Ryder Cup teams, playing a crucial role in reclaiming the cup (alongside Rahm) in the 2023 match, where he captured 3.5 out of 4 points. A six-time champion on the DP World Tour, Hatton has won four Rolex Series titles, including a victory at Europe’s flagship event, the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. The Brit has been ranked in the top 10 in the world and claimed his maiden PGA Tour title in 2020 at The Arnold Palmer Invitational.
In 2024, Hatton romped to victory at LIV Golf Nashville, shooting a final-round 65 for a six-shot win over Majesticks GC’s Sam Horsfield. It tied for the second largest winning margin in LIV Golf history, and his 19-under total ties for the second lowest score. “Having not won for 3-1/2 years, you wonder if you’d be able to do it again in some way,” Hatton said. “It’s a pretty special feeling to win again.”
