The duo, who have eight DP World Tour titles between them, are set to be joined by fellow dual PGA TOUR members this season in Harry Hall, Jordan Smith, John Parry and Daniel Brown at The Belfry Hotel & Resort from August 27-30.

Penge won the 2025 Seve Ballesteros Award after being voted Player of the Year following a breakthrough season on the DP World Tour that saw him win three times as he finished runner-up to Rory McIlroy on the Race to Dubai Rankings Delivered by DP World.

Wallace has made no secret of his desire to one day make the European Ryder Cup team and he alongside many others will hope to get off to a strong start when the qualification period for next year's edition at Adare Manor begins over the Brabazon Course.

Hall and Smith are both in action this week on the PGA TOUR as the FedExCup Playoffs get under way, while Parry and Brown will hope their experiences stateside will serve them well throughout the remainder of the year.

Swede Noren ended a seven-year worldwide wait for victory last year as he became a two-time winner of the event, one of the most historic on the DP World Tour.

This year’s Husqvarna British Masters marks the start of the Back 9, the second phase on the DP World Tour's Race to Dubai schedule, with increased Rankings points on offer throughout.

In a high-calibre international field, Eugenio Chacarra, Casey Jarvis and Jayden Schaper - all multiple winners this season - will hope to bridge the gap to the already announced Race to Dubai leader Patrick Reed.

As many as 14 winners on the 2026 Race to Dubai are in line to tee it up, including Ryder Cup player Bernd Wiesberger who was runner-up at this event a decade ago.

Danny Willett joins fellow Masters winner Reed in providing further Major Championship-winning experience, while Team Europe Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald is also in action.
