Awkward moment Tyrrell Hatton farts during golf shot before he loses cool completely on course

TYRRELL HATTON couldn’t contain his laughter – or his wind – as he got to work preparing for next week’s Ryder Cup.

Hatton, 33, flew out to Farmingdale, New York with the rest of Team Europe to start practising on Bethpage Black ahead of the historic tournament teeing off.

While getting in a practice round with his team-mates on the Black Course, Hatton seemingly gave it his all when trying to hammer a driver down the fairway.

The world No25 let out a fart during his backswing, immediately making him burst out laughing and back away from his shot.

Hatton couldn’t help but smile as his team-mates found the whole ordeal hilarious, too.

Fans reacted to a video of the incident shared on the official Team Europe X account.

One joked: “In this instance, it’s important not to follow through.”

While another added: “Absolutely brilliant.”

And a third teased: “The pressure of the Ryder Cup!”

Hatton will be hoping it won’t be squeaky bum time when the real action gets underway next Friday.

He and his team-mates have been preparing for the hostile atmosphere from the Team USA fans stateside by using state-of-the-art technology.

Team captain Luke Donald handed Virtual Reality headsets to his team to prepare them for the abuse they can expect in New York.

Rory McIlroy revealed that Donald dished out the VR sets after hosting a dinner for his players, their caddies, and the wives and partners before last week’s BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth.

The world No2 explained: “We have been wearing them to simulate the sights and sounds and noise of the crowds.

“That’s the stuff we are going to have to deal with. So it’s better to try to desensitise yourself as much as possible before you get in there.

“The stuff you hear is individually-tailored. You can get them to say whatever you want them to say. You can go as close to the bone as you like.

“They asked me: ’How far do you want this to go?’ And I said go as far as you want. You don’t want to know what gets said. It’s certainly not for publication.”
