" He didn't elaborate too much but did make a point to say it's "nothing serious" and that he wants to get "fully fit for next week at the PGA Championship.

" Unfortunately i have had to WD from this week at Myrtle Beach due to health reasons. Its nothing serious i just need to get fully fit for next week at the @PGAChampionship 👍🏻💙 — Marco Penge (@PengeMarco) May 6, 2026 Penge, ranked No. 39 in the world, tied for 28th at the 2025 PGA Championship and made the cut in his first Masters appearance last month, finishing T-49.

The Englishman earned his 2026 PGA Tour card for his performance on the DP World Tour last season, when he won three times in a six-month span. Penge is the sixth player to withdraw from the Oneflight this week, although two of the others had reasons other than injury. Andrew Putnam and Austin Smotherman were originally on the tee sheet at Dunes Golf and Beach Club in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, but got bumped up to this week's Truist Championship , a signature event at Quail Hollow, after there were two WDs .

An early-week promotion, if you will. The Oneflight has a field of 123 players, including Brooks Koepka, which means that two alternates (Troy Merritt and James Hahn) were added to round out the groupings.
