1984 European Tour
The 1984 European Tour, titled as the 1984 PGA European Tour, was the 13th season of the European Tour, the main professional golf tour in Europe since its inaugural season in 1972.
Changes for 1984
The season was made up of 26 tournaments counting for the Order of Merit, and some non-counting "Approved Special Events". There were several changes from the previous season, with the addition of the Monte Carlo Open, the Celtic International and the Cannes Open; and the loss of the Martini International and the British Masters. In addition the English Golf Classic was merged with the Lawrence Batley International. Soon after the schedule was revealed, it was announced that the Bob Hope British Classic had been cancelled; the Sanyo Open was brought forward from October to fill the vacated dates.
Order of Merit name change
The money list reverted to its original title as the "Order of Merit", having been known as the "Official money list" for the preceding four seasons. In March, it was announced that Sperry Corporation would title sponsor the Order of Merit, being renamed as the Sperry Order of Merit.
