Orlando, FL ….
England’s Tyrrell Hatton has left embattled US TV analyst Paul Azinger chocking on his words after holding his nerve to capture the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Florida.
Hatton, 28 and still struggling with a post Mexico City stomach bug, posted a final day 74 to capture a maiden PGA Tour victory by a shot with a four-under par tally and winning a week after Azinger belittled the careers of both Lee Westwood and Tommy Fleetwood as not being good enough to win on the PGA Tour.
Hatton, and competing in his 60th Tour start, looked shaky after taking a double-bogey on 11 but superbly held his nerve to par his remaining seven holes.
