European Satellite Golf Tour (3rd Level) Launched by the Golf Federations of France, Austria, Italy and Switzerland in 2001, the Alps Tour provides Europe’s best, young talented professionals with the opportunity to gain vital professional tournament experience. As a European Satellite Tour, the Alps Tour crucially provides a stepping stone between International Amateur Golf and European Tour! At the heart of everything the Alps Tour has the desire to help develop Europe’s next generation of golfing champions. As such, it’s widely regarded by tomorrow’s champions as the perfect development platform, providing quality competition across the continent of Europe and beyond. The 2022 Alps Tour schedule will feature 18+ tournaments in 5 countries and see 25+ nationalities compete for five European Challenge Tour ‘cards’ and in excess of € 720,000 in prize money. Headquartered in Paris, France, the Alps Tour is a non-profit organization which receives the backing from national golf federations/governing bodies of host countries.
