2012 Canadian Tour
Appearance
The 2012 Canadian Tour season ran from June 7 to September 9 and consisted of eight official golf tournaments. This was the 43rd season of the Canadian Professional Golf Tour, and the last under the "Canadian Tour" name. On October 18, the Canadian Tour and the U.S. PGA Tour announced that they had reached an agreement by which the PGA Tour would take over the Canadian circuit. On November 1, the Canadian circuit was officially renamed PGA Tour Canada.
Although the 2011 season started with three events in Latin America (March to May), these events were canceled in 2012 due to security concerns. Canadian player Matt Hill won the Order of Merit in 2012.
