Marco Penge will be taking a break from the PGA Tour to concentrate on his health, the British golfer announced via social media on Tuesday.
“This week didn’t go the way I wanted it to but that’s golf,” he posted on Instagram, days after missing the cut at the PGA Championship at the Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pa. “Moving forward, I have decided that I am going to take some time off to get my health back to where it needs to be. Thank you for your support as always. I’ll be back soon.”
Penge posted on X on May 12 that he had been dealing with “ear/neck/nervous system” issues since a viral infection last November and that after continuing to deal with a sinus infection and vertigo, he underwent an MRI on his brain, head and neck.
“Thankfully the images were great and so a few of the doubts I have had have gone away which is a big relief,” Penge posted on X.
After winning three times on the DP World Tour last season, the 28-year-old made seven cuts in 12 starts in his rookie season on the PGA Tour and ranks No. 43 in the Official World Golf Ranking after finishing last season with a career-best ranking of No. 29.
