Tyrrell Hatton shares lead at DP World Tour Championship

GNN Desk card: Tyrrell Hatton shares lead at DP World Tour Championship

Tyrrell Hatton took his frustration out on a green at the DP World Tour Championship, and he is still sharing the lead.

Golf Digest reported the moment. Tyrrell Hatton opened with a 70 and followed it with a 69 on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates, which puts him at −5 through 36 holes.

That total is level with Rory McIlroy, who shot 69 and 70. Kristoffer Reitan and Joost Luiten are one back at −4, with Luiten having opened with a 67. Mikael Lindberg, Freddy Schott and Victor Perez sit at −3.

Hatton and McIlroy share the lead at −5.
