The British golfer has gained notoriety for his explosive tantrums when his game isn’t going the way he’d hoped, and while some critics have questioned whether his temperament hinders his chances of success, he has no plans to change.

He told Bunkered magazine: “Everyone’s entitled to their opinion.

“It’s not going to change who I am. I’m just being me.

“Sometimes I’ll say something positive and it just turns to s***.

“I’m better off just being negative and it can only get better from there.

“I’m just out there trying my best and I want everything to be perfect and I get frustrated with myself and other things when it’s not.”

And Tyrell admitted he has always been “expressive” on the golf course but would never go “too far”.

He said: “I’ve always been that way since I was a kid.

“Just quite expressive and you always know where you stand with me.

“My dad’s a funny one on the golf course. He’s quite lively.

“I’m quite sure when there’s any cameras around at the Dunhill Links and you’ll see my dad chucking or dropping a club or two.

“There’s a fine line. There’s showing emotion which is OK and there’s going too far.

“There would have been times when I was a kid where [my dad] wasn’t very impressed with what he’s seen or heard but, as time went on, that’s just me as a person and how I react to things in that moment or process things in a short space of time.”
