Matt Wallace did not show his best side at the DP World Tour Championship at the weekend, where he finished tied 11th. Anyone who has ever swung a club has probably experienced for themselves that golf can sometimes drive you mad. Nevertheless, there are rules of conduct on the golf course and, especially among professionals who are considered role models, freak-outs are not welcome. Tyrrell Hatton, who is known for his emotions on the course, also allowed himself to overreact.
Matt Wallace takes his anger out on the fairway
Matt Wallace’s round was apparently satisfactory. Although he started with two bogeys on holes 1 and 3, he then improved significantly. With a series of birdies on holes 8 to 11, he made up a few places on the leaderboard, on which he was already among the leaders.
His emotional outburst then followed on the par-5 14th. His tee shot landed in the thick rough, leaving him a few meters behind with his second shot. He then sank his third shot in the greenside bunker, which was the last straw. Wallace rammed his club into the fairway, leaving clearly visible damage. Neither he nor his caddie bothered to repair the damage. In the end, he recorded a bogey on 14.

After the tournament, Wallace summed up his tournament on Twitter. There was no comment on his slip-up.
Tyrrell Hatton divides clubs
Tyrrell Hatton, who finished sixth in Dubai, also allowed himself a slip-up. It was not the course that fell victim to this, but his club, which he unceremoniously broke after a failed shot. The commentator described such behavior as a “terrible influence on the next generation”.

For his third victory at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, Tyrrell Hatton puts a mixture of popular Ping models from recent years and the current season in his bag. With the latest wedges and irons, he impresses on the fairways, from the tee he relies on the G430 series from last year. A look inside the Tour winner’s bag.
A Look Inside Tyrrell Hatton’s Bag at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship
Tyrrell Hatton relies on the latest woods and irons from Ping. The Englishman seems happy with the driver and woods from the G430 series and delivers first-class performances time and time again. The G430 LST driver has a slightly lower moment of inertia than the Max models and a smaller club head for less spin off the tee. As a fairway wood, Hatton then switches to the G430 Max versions to enjoy a little more forgiveness. As with the drivers, the face of the woods is designed with different thicknesses to compensate to a certain extent for miss-hits outside the sweet spot.
On the fairways and par 3s, Hatton then uses the Ping i230 irons from iron 3 to 6. The Players Distance irons are slightly wider in the sole and have a lower weight than the brand’s blades. Thanks to Mirco Grooves and a light cavity back, the irons still promise good trajectory control, which is always helpful for Scottish links golf. From the 7 iron to the pitching wedge, Hatton then uses the new Blueprint S irons from Ping. This classic cavity-back iron is said to have an improved sound compared to its predecessor and impress with its particularly high level of control.
Around the greens, Hatton uses the brand new wedges from Ping. The s159 wedges will succeed the Glide series in 2024 and impress with a mix of popular technologies and new innovations. Ping offers plenty of spin and different sole grinds. Hatton relies on the “S” grind, which offers plenty of bounce and versatility thanks to a heel and trail edge relief. On the green, the Englishman also uses a “vintage model”. The Ping Vault Oslo putter was first launched on the market in 2016 and, after some back and forth, still seems to be a favorite in Hatton’s bag. He uses the Titleist Pro V1x as his golf ball.
