Tyrrell Hatton went on insane bender, had gross hangover after earning Ryder Cup spot
It was a night to remember for Tyrrell Hatton — and a messy morning he won’t surely forget.
The LIV Golf star took quite the stroll down memory lane Wednesday when recalling the boozy celebrations enjoyed with Jon Rahm upon learning he had qualified for Europe’s Ryder Cup team that will compete this month at Bethpage Black, an evening that resulted in the 33-year-old waking up to a bed of vomit.
“I had like six glasses of wine at dinner and then I had a double gin and tonic, drunk that at a very normal rate, and then Jon was deciding what he wanted and he said Disaronno Sours, and I was like ‘Perfect, go on then,’” Hatton said, according to ESPN.
“They go down very easily. And then I was starting the chant of basically getting someone to down it, which then every cocktail that followed was a shot. Then we ran out of Disaronno and the guy at the bar made some hazelnut sour, which wasn’t great, and there was a few of them. Then there was a margarita and then there was a strawberry vodka thing. God, it was aggressive. It was horrible. But I mean, it was funny at the time.”
Things took a gnarly turn for Hatton when he eventually called it a night.
“When I did actually get back into the room, I fell across the bed sideways, and face down in that position, and then I’ve woken myself up throwing up in that position. I’ve then fallen back asleep in that position, and then as I’ve woken up, I’ve got sick all down my arms, both sides, all down my shirt. I get off the bed and walk around to the bathroom, look in the mirror, and I’m like, ‘Oh, my God,’ I got sick in my face, in my beard. How I set an alarm to make the flight for the few hours time, I don’t know. But then waking up in a slightly more sober state was horrendous,” he said.
Hatton, who plays on Rahm’s Legion XIII squad for the Saudi-backed tour, then phoned his wife, Emily, amid the chaotic state of his room.
“I was like, ‘I don’t know what to do,’ I mean, I was rushing to make the room somewhat acceptable before leaving. So yeah, I ended up stripping the bed, leaving some cash and a note, saying I was ‘really sorry, I was sick in the bed in the night, please throw it in the trash. I feel like I did the right thing upon leaving, but obviously in a pretty bad state,” he said.
Hatton is now focused on his fourth Ryder Cup — seven years after making his debut for Europe in Paris.
He was one of the six automatic qualifiers, along with Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Tommy Fleetwood, Robert MacIntyre and Rasmus Højgaard.
Team Europe captain Luke Donald named Matt Fitzpatrick, Viktor Hovland, Shane Lowry, Sepp Straka, Ludvig Abert and Rahm as his selections earlier this month.
“That was a very nice phone call to receive,” he said. “I was over the moon, to be honest.”
The Ryder Cup begins Sept. 26.
