The1993 European Tour, titled as the1993 Volvo Tour for sponsorship reasons, was the 22nd season of theEuropean Tour, the mainprofessional golf tour in Europe since its inaugural season in 1972.

It was the sixth season of the tour under a title sponsorship agreement withVolvo, that was announced in May 1987.[1]

Changes for 1993

[edit]

The season was made up of 38 tournaments counting for the Order of Merit, and five non-counting "Approved Special Events".[2][3]

There were few changes from the previous season, with the addition of theMadeira Island Open and aProServ tournament in Bologna replacing theVolvo Open di Firenze. A new tournament was planned for South Africa but was not finalised.[4]

The cancellation of theMonte Carlo Open in February prompted rescheduling of theCarroll's Irish Open to ensure there was no gap in the schedule prior toThe Open Championship.[5] TheHonda Open, originally scheduled opposite theDunhill Cup, was later moved to the fill the dates vacated by the Carroll's Irish Open.[6] In early March, theKronenbourg Open was added to replace the cancelled ProServ tournament.[7]
