Hatton entered the day at 4-under having carded level par on Saturday and an impressive 66 on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">He began positively with a birdie on the par-5 second but dropped a shot at the 251-yard par-3 fourth. It was a costly error from the Englishman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">His tee shot had travelled marginally long, landing just off the green. It ought to have been a fairly straightforward two-putt for someone of his ability. After leaving his first attempt roughly three feet away, Hatton then made a dreadful mistake with his putt catching the lip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The 34-year-old, who is renowned for occasional outbursts, was clearly furious. Head shakes and muttered words followed before he finally holed out on his fourth attempt.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The frustration was evidently bubbling away, and as he returned his putter, an irate Hatton erupted, &#8220;This place is f&#8212;&#8212; bulls&#8212;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span data-testid=\"readmore\" class=\"ReadMore_readmore-prefix__xS44r __className_020eaf\">READ MORE<!-- -->: <span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-link__eF9pN\">Masters LIVE: Rory McIlroy regains lead as Justin Rose wobbles after official confronts livid star<\/span><\/span><span data-testid=\"readmore\" class=\"ReadMore_readmore-prefix__xS44r __className_020eaf\">READ MORE<!-- -->: <span class=\"ReadMore_readmore-link__eF9pN\">The Masters launch security crackdown to protect golden rule after Major winner kicked out<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Remarkably, it wasn&#8217;t the only occasion spectators had to shield their ears as Wyndham Clark delivered his own expletive-laden outburst moments afterwards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Making an almost identical blunder in the subsequent group, with his par putt catching the lip to hand him a bogey, Clark yelled, &#8216;F&#8212;!&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Hatton&#8217;s round did improve shortly thereafter. A hole-out eagle on the seventh was accompanied by a birdie on 8, which would have lifted his spirits considerably. If Hatton&#8217;s difficulties on the fourth hole were in any way connected to the rock-hard greens baking in the Augusta heat, he was far from alone in his struggles.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"image-group\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"SlideViewerButton_slide-viewer-button__BDJoG\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-37002785\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"37002785\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.5\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tyrrell Hatton was left seething after he completed the fourth hole at Augusta National\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37002785.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_GettyImages-2271012081.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37002785.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/0_GettyImages-2271012081.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37002785.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_GettyImages-2271012081.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37002785.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_GettyImages-2271012081.jpg 1200w\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageCaption_caption__j7HRu\" data-testid=\"image-caption\">\n<p aria-label=\"Tyrrell Hatton was left seething after he completed the fourth hole at Augusta National\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">Tyrrell Hatton was left seething after he completed the fourth hole at Augusta National<cite aria-label=\"Image: Getty Images\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-credit__wlx1W\" data-testid=\"caption-credit\">(Image: Getty Images)<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Despite carding a 4-under round, LIV Golf team-mate Jon Rahm suffered three bogeys on an Augusta National he claims he has never seen playing this firm before.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Definitely some things I&#8217;m going change going forward,&#8221; he said after completing his final round, leaving him 1-over for the tournament.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Preparation-wise and what to do.
