TYRRELL HATTON stunned a Sky Sports reporter and golf fans alike with his shock admission live on TV.

The foul-mouthed Englishman is never afraid to speak his mind, on and off the course.

And he was typically honest when quizzed during the Par 3 Contest on the eve of the Masters on Wednesday.

Hatton, 32, stopped for a chat with the Sky Sports reporter on his way to the ninth and final hole alongside compatriots Nick Faldo and Matt Fitzpatrick.

Faldo and Danny Willett are the only English golfers to have won the Masters in its 87 previous editions.

And LIV rebel Hatton was asked what it would take for a third to join that elite list.

But in his brilliant, frank demeanour, he was quick to rule himself out of winning his maiden major at this year’s Masters.

Hatton – whose best result at Augusta is T18 in 2021 – said: “Well you shouldn’t ask me.

“I’ve got no chance.”

He then indicated that the reporter should ask Fitzpatrick instead because the Sheffield star secured the 2022 US Open.

Fitzpatrick laughed off Hatton’s comments, complimenting his fellow Ryder Cup hero on his form this year, before suggesting it is Faldo who should answer the question.

But it was Hatton’s quick wit that drew plenty of attention on social media.

One fan said: “Tyrrell Hatton is the most relatable guy in all of Georgia this week.”

Another wrote: “Most entertaining player on the circuit. Good luck Tyrrell.”

A third added: “Love Tyrrell Hatton’s answer here.”

And a final user commented: “He didn’t swear so I don’t think that actually was Tyrrell Hatton. Probably an AI version of him!”

Hatton hit the headlines last weekend for his expletive-laden rant at himself after a poor tee shot at the LIV Golf event in Miami.

And the TV cameras – and crucially the microphones – stayed on him as he launched into his tirade.

Hatton said: “F***ing what a w*** bounce that was.

“If it f***ing bounces left it’s fine. “F*** you, f***ing c***.”

And he needed to draft in an emergency caddie for Augusta after his regular bag man Mick Donaghy injured his shoulder in bizarre circumstances – possibly after a pint or two.
