Hatton Surges to Ryder Cup Contention at BMW PGA Championship Wentworth

Tyrrell Hatton showcased impressive form at the 2025 BMW PGA Championship, finishing tied for fifth and producing one of the tournament's best rounds with an 8-under 64 on day three, allowing him to climb the leaderboard to third place going into the final round. Hatton expressed confidence in his swing and game, focusing on creating scoring opportunities and maintaining composure despite some earlier frustrations. Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald will be pleased with Hatton's performance, alongside other European teammates like Matt Fitzpatrick and Viktor Hovland, who also finished strong. Alex Noren won the championship in a playoff against Adrien Saddier, while Noren, a Ryder Cup vice captain, was notably the best-performing European player. The tournament saw shifting leaderboards due to challenging weather conditions, with key players like Hideki Matsuyama and Justin Rose falling back, while Hatton and Hovland stayed competitive. Hatton, the only LIV Golf player on the European Ryder Cup team, remains optimistic about his chances, hoping to follow up his past victory at Wentworth with another strong showing.
