The
PGA Tour Latinoamérica is a third level
professional golf tour formed in 2012 and operated by the
PGA Tour. It was formed in concert with the now defunct
Tour de las Américas. Executives from the Tour de las Américas became employees of the new tour. The initial 2012 season runs from September to December and consists of 11 tournaments in seven
Latin American countries. Subsequent years' schedules will run in two swings, March to May (
Southern Hemisphere autumn) and October to December (spring).
