The PGA EuroPro Tour has announced its tournament schedule for 2019 and is back at Mannings Heath, with five new stunning venues bolstering the highly anticipated line up.
The 2019 season tees off on 22nd May as the PGA EuroPro Tour heads to the Melbourne Club at Brocket Hall (Palmerston Course) in Hertfordshire, as some of the sport’s best young and up and coming talent compete for promotion on to the Challenge Tour in 2020 with more than £850,000 in prize money this season.
The Tour goes to Mannings Heath Golf Club & Wine Estate (8-10 August), where 2018 Order of Merit winner Dave Coupland narrowly missed out on a third title win of the season in a thrilling one-hole playoff against eventual champion Billy Hemstock.

And with the pool of talent currently developing on our Tour, combined with the quality of courses set for 2019, the upcoming season will test the best young golfers in Europe and develop them into stars of the future.
“With £50,000 prize fund up for grabs at every tournament, not to mention TV exposure on Sky Sports in over 100 Countries around the world, the PGA EuroPro Tour truly is the best place to hone your game.”
