Following his win, Penge discussed his plans to move to the USA and compete on the PGA Tour in an interview with Ten Golf. He said that he is looking forward to playing against the “best players” in the world and winning “national opens.” He said:
“I love playing golf and I’d play every week if my team let me. So yeah, I want to be playing against the best players in the world and I want to be playing national opens like this. When you win a couple of national opens, that’s something that I’ll never forget and something that my family will never forget. So, that’s my plan.”
Flushing It Golf shared a post about Marco Penge on its X (formerly Twitter) account with a caption:

“It’s refreshing to hear a very talented young golfer having ambition, wanting to improve & play competitive golf as opposed to seeking easy money. Well done Marco Penge,” another fan added.
