The Professional Golf of Malaysia Tour, currently titled as the Toyota Tour for sponsorship reasons, is the main professional golf tour in Malaysia.
The tour was founded in 2010 by Tun Ahmad Sarji bin Abdul Hamid and was created in order to further advance professional golf in Malaysia.[1] Many players from the Professional Golf of Malaysia Tour have progressed through the tour, eventually playing and winning on the Asian Tour. Notable players include Ben Leong, Nicholas Fung,[2] Danny Chia, Airil Rizman and Gavin Green.[3]
In 2023, the tour signed a sponsor title agreement with UMW Toyota Motor, being renamed as the Toyota Tour for the 2023 season onwards.[4]
