Marco Penge (Pro V1) prevailed in extra holes, earning his third DP World Tour title in the last six months. After opening the week with three straight sub-68 rounds (66-67-64), Penge held steady on the back nine on Sunday, posting 15 under for the week at Club de Campo Villa de Madrid. Daniel Brown (Pro V1) matched Penge’s total of 269, but Penge sealed the win after rolling in his Pro V1 for a birdie 3 on the first extra hole.
This week in Spain, Penge ranked third in Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green, picking up +11.68 shots on the field on average. More than half of those shots came from his approach play (+6.28, 6th), and he finished T2 in Greens in Regulation (74%). The Englishman also ranked T1 in Bogey Avoidance, only surrendering five all week long.
With this victory in Spain’s national open, the 27-year-old has locked up an invitation to the 2026 Masters Tournament and a spot in the field at the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. Penge is also projected to climb to No. 2 in the Race to Dubai rankings.

PGA TOUR | Baycurrent Classic
BAYCURRENT CLASSIC CHAMP WINS WITH VOKEY SM10 SAND AND LOB WEDGES
The winner of the Baycurrent Classic closed out a one-shot win on Sunday in Japan, bringing two Vokey Design SM10 wedges to the winner’s circle: his 56.10S sand wedge and 60.04T lob wedge. The No. 4-ranked player in the OWGR and two-time major champion leaned on his scoring clubs to get up-and-down for par on 14 of 18 attempts (78%) this week, ranking 6th in Scrambling.
The 31-year-old has played a similar sand and lob wedge setup for years, relying on a 56-degree S grind and rotating between a 60-degree T Grind and a 60-degree K* Grind depending on course conditions. He won both his majors — the 2024 PGA Championship and Open Championship — with Vokey SM10 models in the bag.
This week’s runner-up, finishing one shot back of the champion, was also gaming a Vokey Design SM10 lob wedge (WedgeWorks 60L). He led the field in Scrambling, converting 21 of 24 up-and-down attempts (88%).
Overall, there were 116 Vokey Design gap, sand and lob wedges (52%) in play at Yokohama Country Club this week, more than all other brands combined.
And dating back to the Open Championship in July, nine of 10 PGA TOUR events have been won with a Vokey Design SM10 lob wedge.
