About this tour

The JDGA WR4GD Tour Series is a series of WR4GD (World Ranking for Golfers with Disability) sanctioned tournaments established by the Japan Disabled Golf Association (JDGA), a certified non-profit organization, to support golfers with disabilities in the Asia region.

You can learn more about WR4GD [here].

Currently, there are over 140 world ranking events held annually in regions including Europe, the United States, Australia, and South Africa. However, only three of these events are held in Asia.

In recent years, major international tournaments such as The G4D Open (The Open for Golfers with Disability in the UK) and the U.S. Adaptive Open have been launched, rapidly advancing the global stage of golf for people with disabilities.

In response, the Japan Disabled Golf Association launched this tour with the aim of increasing opportunities for golfers in Asia to compete in world ranking events, even if only a few at a time.
