  Let F be a non-archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. Let G
be a (connected) reductive group over F that splits over a tamely ramified
field extension of F. We revisit Yu's construction of smooth complex
representations of G(F) from a slightly different perspective and provide a
proof that the resulting representations are supercuspidal. We also provide a
counterexample to Proposition 14.1 and Theorem 14.2 in [Yu01], whose proofs
relied on a typo in a reference.
