About the U.S. Pro Golf Tour Presented by SportsQuest
The U.S. Pro Golf Tour Presented by SportsQuest will rapidly become the nation's premier intermediary tour, featuring more than 300 talented young professional golfers representing 34 states and 12 countries. The Tour will deliver a “Big Tour” experience for players and spectators by providing first class amenities, including skybox and grandstand seating, scoreboards, celebrity pro-ams and corporate hospitality. In addition to its Championships, the Tour intends to develop a regional tour system.
The 2008 USPGT schedule, purses and formats of competition were developed after evaluating several different potential structures for the 2008 Tour. The 2008 USPGT Championships are designed to maximize the potential for player earnings, limit weekly expenses for the Tour and the players, give more opportunities for more players to make money by paying deeper into the field, earn substantial cash bonuses and allow scheduling so players can play a full schedule on a mini-tour of their choice with minimum conflict issues. The Tour will expand the schedule for 2009, but in general, USPGT events will have large purses and fewer events on its schedule. 2009 will also bring the regional system development into play and USPGT anticipates that Players will be able to compete at a regional level for lower than normal mini tour entry fees and costs, with access to the larger purse events of the USPGT.
