Here’s the latest on the DP World Tour Antalya penalty.
Gregorio De Leo received a one-shot penalty for slow play on the 11th hole during the final round of the Turkish Airlines Open in Antalya, while his group was under observation. He was over the 50-second limit for the stroke by more than 30 seconds, which triggered the penalty under the tour’s Pace of Play policy. This penalty affected his position in the final leaderboard as he contended for the title at Belek.[3][7]
The incident drew coverage from multiple golf outlets, which summarized the ruling as a one-stroke penalty for exceeding the designated stroke time while under monitoring.[7][3]
Related context: the DP World Tour has a formal pace-of-play policy that imposes penalties for slow play in crucial rounds, and similar disciplinary actions have occurred in other areas of the tour’s governance (e.g., betting breaches or other sanctions in past years) though those are separate from this Antalya situation.[2][4]
If you’d like, I can pull together a brief timeline of the round and highlight how the penalty shifted the leaderboard, or provide links to the full official DP World Tour statement and reputable recaps.
