Schedule

The table below shows the 1993 European Tour schedule which was made up of 38 tournaments counting for the Order of Merit, and five non-counting "Approved Special Events". There were few changes from the previous season, with the addition of the Madeira Island Open and a ProServ tournament in Bologna replacing the Volvo Open di Firenze. A new tournament was planned for South Africa but was not finalised.
The cancellation of the Monte Carlo Open in February prompted resheduling of the Irish Open to ensure there was no gap in the schedule prior to The Open Championship. The Honda Open, originally scheduled opposite the Dunhill Cup, was later moved to the fill the dates vacated by the Irish Open. In early March, the Kronenbourg Open was added to replace the cancelled ProServ tournament.
