Famous Millionaire Golfer Trashes Portugal for Their Ugly Antics at the FIFA World Cup

The most notable recent event has been the FIFA World Cup, which is currently going on in Qatar. The soccer event has divided the world, with everyone picking a side. The entire sports community has been avidly following the tournament, and soccer fans have been having the thrill of a lifetime. One such soccer fan is also a golf professional, Tyrrell Hatton, who plays on the DP World Tour. He has been very active with updates about the World Cup, and his most recent post is a shot fired toward the Portuguese soccer team.

The English golf pro turned pro in 2011. He has since won six times on the European Tour, and in 2020 he even secured a win on the PGA Tour. The 31-year-old played for the European team in the 2018 Ryder Cup. They beat Team USA that year.

Hatton, being an Englishman, is an avid soccer fan. The golf pro supports Liverpool Football Club, which plays in the English Premier League. Hatton is, unsurprisingly, supporting England to go on and win the World Cup. But the pro has watched almost every game this World Cup and has been regularly tweeting his views.

Why was Tyrrell Hatton unimpressed with the Portuguese team’s performance at the FIFA World Cup?

Hatton sat down to watch the match between Portugal and Morocco in the World Cup quarterfinals today. Portugal fell behind in the 42nd minute, with Morocco taking a one-goal lead. “Go 1-0 down and Portugal turns this into the diving world championship,” Tyrrell tweeted shortly after.

The golf pro was referring to the number of times the Portuguese players dove to the ground after conceding a goal in the hope of claiming a free kick or a penalty and giving their team a chance to match Morocco’s score. He certainly thought this was unsportsmanlike and didn’t approve.

An hour later, the match ended with the heartbroken Portuguese players losing by the same score to Morocco. Tyrrell again tweeted, praising the Moroccan team and writing, “Fair play to Morocco, making history representing your country is pretty cool.”

The Englishman will surely be on the edge of his seat for the next match at the World Cup, where his home country takes on the defending champions, France. Will we see any more updates from the 6-time DP World Tour winner? And will his team’s journey end in success or heartbreak? Tune in to find out.
