With the win, Puig became the first Spanish player to win the event since the late Seve Ballesteros won at Royal Melbourne in 1981 at the age of 24. In that win, Ballesteros, in his typical dramatic fashion, came back from five strokes down in the final round to claim the title. “Really happy about that and excited and proud of all the work that I’ve been putting in and obviously, my name being with Seve’s name as the only two Spaniards to have won this event makes it even more special,” Puig said. Starting the final round tied for the lead at 13-under par, the LIV star pulled away early, making three straight birdies starting on the second hole and never looked back. After holding a four-shot lead for the majority of the round, Puig coasted to the finish and finished 18-under par, good for a two-shot win over China’s Wenyi Ding. Ding birdied four of his last 5 holes on the front nine to pose a challenge but Puig played flawless golf on Sunday, as he had for much of the tournament. Puig played his final 40 holes bogey-free to pull away from a field that included multiple LIV Golf members, and PGA Tour stars Min Woo Lee, Adam Scott and Ryan Fox.

With a superb Sunday round of 66 at Royal Queensland Golf Club, Spaniard David Puig won his first DP World Tour event as a full-time member, taking home the BMW Australian PGA Championship.

With the win, Puig became the first Spanish player to win the event since the late Seve Ballesteros won at Royal Melbourne in 1981 at the age of 24. In that win, Ballesteros, in his typical dramatic fashion, came back from five strokes down in the final round to claim the title.

“Really happy about that and excited and proud of all the work that I’ve been putting in and obviously, my name being with Seve’s name as the only two Spaniards to have won this event makes it even more special,” Puig said.

Starting the final round tied for the lead at 13-under par, the LIV star pulled away early, making three straight birdies starting on the second hole and never looked back. After holding a four-shot lead for the majority of the round, Puig coasted to the finish and finished 18-under par, good for a two-shot win over China’s Wenyi Ding.

Ding birdied four of his last 5 holes on the front nine to pose a challenge but Puig played flawless golf on Sunday, as he had for much of the tournament. Puig played his final 40 holes bogey-free to pull away from a field that included multiple LIV Golf members, and PGA Tour stars Min Woo Lee, Adam Scott and Ryan Fox.

The win was Puig’s third as a professional and first since the Malaysian Open in 2024. “I really had a lot of close calls in a few events this year and last year, and wasn’t able to pull through, and if feels unbelievable, especially winning here in Australia,” said Puig after Sunday’s round.

The BMW Australian PGA Championship is a co-sanctioned event between the Australian PGA and the DP World Tour. The DP World Tour is already starting its 2025-26 season, just weeks after Rory McIlroy won his seventh Race to Dubai title to end last season.

McIlroy will be in the field at next week’s Australian Open, another DP World Tour event played Down Under.
