Hatton finished third in Dubai behind eventual winner Sergio Garcia
Marlow golfer Tyrrell Hatton turned in a sparkling weekend of golf to finish third at the Dubai Desert Classic.
The 25-year-old finished on -14, five shots behind Sergio Garcia of Spain.
After a relatively modest start, Hatton shot a 65 on Saturday and a 67 on Sunday to rocket up the leaderboard.
Ironically, he finished behind Garcia and Henrik Stenson, who were his playing partners over the first two days.
The third placed finish propelled him into the top 20 of the official world rankings for the very first time.
Hatton said on Twitter:
Really happy with T3 this week!
