Tyrrell Hatton Named to Team Cup Roster

Tyrrell Hatton's chances of competing in the 2025 Ryder Cup have improved with his selection for the Great Britain and Ireland team in the upcoming Team Cup, a key event for Ryder Cup hopefuls. Despite controversy surrounding his move to LIV Golf, Hatton has performed well recently, finishing first, second, and sixth in his last three tournaments, which has propelled him to third in the European Ryder Cup standings. His inclusion in the Team Cup lineup suggests he remains in the favor of European captain Luke Donald, who emphasized the event's role in identifying potential Ryder Cup players. Notably, Hatton is currently the only LIV golfer on the Great Britain and Ireland team, as other players like Jon Rahm and Sergio Garcia face uncertainty regarding their Ryder Cup eligibility. The Team Cup will take place in Abu Dhabi from January 10-12, 2024, providing Hatton with a critical opportunity to impress before the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in September. However, Hatton's recent behavior on the course has raised concerns, leading to calls for him to address his on-course demeanor as he aims for a spot on the team.
