It really suits me. Probably suits me a little bit better than this course does this week just in terms of what you need to do off the tee and into the greens.<\/p>\n “This was a great confidence-builder this week coming off a couple of weeks off and I’ll hopefully just produce more of the same next Thursday and onwards.”<\/p>\n Penge, who has won three times on the DP World Tour this year, finished ninth in Abu Dhabi after carding a closing 63 which contained back-to-back eagles.<\/p>\n He said: “Mentally, me and my caddie were great today, and nice to go into next week shooting that score today.<\/p>\n “Obviously got off to a great start, starting birdie, birdie, birdie. I mean, I played great all week. The putter has been very cold up until today.<\/p>\n “Yesterday I was poor mentally and broke myself down a bit and wanted to come out today and fight back, and that’s what I did. Yeah, nice to shoot a low one.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Another thrilling season of elite golfing action will draw to a close at the DP World Tour Championship…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":247663,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[100163,107264,107261,107262,107259,107263,107260,5904,103006,2623,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-258799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-dp-world-tour-championship","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025-field","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025-leaderboard","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025-live","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025-prize-money","tag-dp-world-tour-championship-2025-uk-tee-times","tag-golf","tag-race-to-dubai","tag-rory-mcilroy","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/247663"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Tommy](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1762965127_863_tommy-fleetwood-england-smiles-17th-1036819931.jpg\")
