  • Country:
  • Denmark

English golfer Marco Penge clinched the Danish Golf Championship with a crucial birdie on the 18th hole, edging out Rasmus Hojgaard by a single stroke on Sunday.

Hojgaard had dominated early in his home country, commanding a four-shot lead before a series of misplays narrowed his advantage and allowed Penge to overtake him.

Penge's victory at Furesø Golf Klub, marking his second European tour win this year, tightens the race for Ryder Cup qualification, with Hojgaard still chasing an automatic spot.
