Marcel Siem is one of the most colorful characters on the DP World Tour—successful on the course, approachable off it, and never shy of a good story. Now, the 44-year-old German is making headlines again: In the latest Life on Tour podcast episode with George Harper Jr. and Nicolas Colsaerts, Siem revealed he once set not one, but three course records while completely drunk.
“I think I had three course records—completely hammered, no sleep,” Siem said. Harper Jr., stunned, asked: “Sorry, say that again?” to which Siem repeated: “I had three course records in my life—completely hammered, no sleep. Totally crazy.”
The “Hungover” Course Records of Marcel Siem
One of the most legendary, according to Siem, was the third round at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2015. “We started with Long Island Iced Teas, then five beers, and ended with champagne,” he recounted. “We partied until 6 a.m.—our tee time was at 8. It was horrible. I was really that drunk.”

Despite having to stop twice mid-round to throw up, Siem delivered one of the best performances of his career. “I just wanted to go to bed. But then they said: ‘No, interviews! You just tied the course record with Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods…’ I just said: ‘I three-putted the last hole, you idiots! Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I would’ve gone for eagle!’”
Title Defense in Italy
Fresh off his victory at the 2024 Italian Open, Siem returns this week to defend his title—this time on a new course: the Argentario Golf Club in Tuscany. The scenic par-71 track, known for its ocean views and challenging, undulating greens, hosts the 82nd edition of the tournament for the first time.
Siem impressed in 2024 with rounds of 69, 67, 70, and a final 68 to secure the win in a playoff against Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin. It marked his sixth DP World Tour title and an emotional return to the big stage.
