On the 30th (Korean time), at the Emirates Golf Club in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (par 72, 7,364 yards), during the second day of the European Tour Omega Dubai Desert Classic (total prize money $3.25 million), he surged with an 8-under-par round to climb to a tie for 23rd place (4-under-par 140). Thomas Detry (Belgium) leads with 10-under-par 134, Robert MacIntyre (Scotland) is second with 9-under-par 135, and Tommy Fleetwood (England) along with two others are tied for third at 8-under-par 136.
Hatton started tied for 115th, 12 shots behind the leader, and recorded 1 eagle, 8 birdies, and 2 bogeys. His impressive start included a birdie on the 1st hole (par 4), an eagle on the 3rd hole (par 5), and consecutive birdies on the 5th and 6th holes, reducing 5 strokes over 6 holes. After a bogey on the 8th hole, he steadied himself, then added a birdie on the 9th hole (both par 4) and three consecutive birdies from the 11th to 13th holes. A bogey on the 14th hole was recovered with a birdie on the 16th hole (both par 4), concluding his second round. His putting was outstanding with only 24 putts, demonstrating 'stingy putting.'
