Penge bringing dream season to NGC

Marco Penge, the only three-time winner on the DP World Tour in the 2025 season, has added his name to the field for the Nedbank Golf Challenge.

The Englishman is set to make his debut in “Africa’s Major” at the end of his breakthrough year.

With his three wins in China, Denmark and Spain, Penge finished the season in second place on the Race to Dubai Rankings, 30th on the Official World Golf Ranking, and earned dual membership on the PGA Tour.

He heads to Sun City as the 2026 season gets up and running as the next highest-ranked player in the field after Norwegian Ryder Cup star Viktor Hovland, who is also making his debut at Sun City.

It’s apt that he returns to South African fairways where his incredible year began when he finished third in the Investec South African Open in March.

“I love playing in South Africa and I’m really looking forward to ending an amazing year by making my debut at the Nedbank Golf Challenge,” said Penge.

“It’s an event I’ve heard a lot about, in terms of the course, the fact that it is played in honour of Mr Player, and everything else that goes into the week, so I’m sure it will be a great experience and the perfect way to help get my 2026 season up and running.”
