He continues to play some events on his home tour and has won 13 times in Australassia, including the Victorian Open as an amateur.

In December 2009 Allenby became the first Australian to win the Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa, defeating Henrik Stenson in a playoff.

It was his first professional win in four years, but he did not have to wait long for the next as he returned home to claim his fourth Australian PGA Championship title the following week.

In February 2012, Allenby missed an opportunity to end an eleven-year drought on the PGA Tour, when he took a two stroke advantage to the 72nd hole of the Mayakoba Golf Classic.

He hit his tee shot into the trees on the right and proceeded to make double bogey to fall into a playoff with rookie John Huh.

[6] In July 2015 at the RBC Canadian Open, Allenby had a verbal altercation with his caddie, Mick Middlemo, after playing four holes.

[8] Middlemo walked off the course and Allenby selected a school principal from the gallery to carry his clubs the rest of the round.

[13] Allenby said he was kidnapped while drinking at a bar in Honolulu on 17 January 2015, with his kidnappers robbing and beating him before leaving him in a park several miles away.

[14] An arrest was made concerning the false use of his credit card when it was used to spend US$32,000 at a strip club, which was filed as a case of mistaken identity.
