Tyrrell Hatton spoke to the media ahead of the BMW PGA Championship, where he was asked:
– How proud were you to qualify for the team automatically?
– How did you celebrate and do you ever want to feel that way again?
Qualifying for the team automatically was one of my main goals for this year. Um, I knew going into the Desert Classic that I was going to have that week in the four majors. So, I was going to have five events to earn enough points to be an automatic and from my three previous Rder Cups of always of making the team automatically. I wanted to to keep that going. So, uh, I thought I’d blown that chance on after the Sunday I had at the at the Open. Um, but then, yeah, Luke called me on the Sunday night of of Indie, which was the um I’m trying to think what that this the end of the second FedEx event. Um yeah, he called me to say that the the guys weren’t earning points in in Atlanta and that I’d actually made the team automatically. And um that was obviously a very nice phone call to to receive and I was uh very yeah I I was over the moon to be honest.

I get off the bed, like walk around to the bathroom, look in the room, I’m like, “Oh my god, I’ve got sick in my face, in my beard. How I set an alarm to make the flight for the the few hours time, I don’t know.” Um, but yeah, then waking up in a slightly more sober state was horrendous. And having to clean up that, I mean, I ended up calling Emily, I was like, I don’t know what to do. I mean, I was rushing to like make the room somewhat acceptable before leaving. Um, so yeah, I ended up stripping the bed, leaving leaving some cash on and a and a note saying, “I was really sorry. I was sick on the bed in the night. Uh, please throw in the trash.” But um I feel like I did the right thing upon leaving, but I was in a pretty bad
