Is getting on the LPGA Tour hard?
According to On The Green Consulting in 2021, the road to becoming an LPGA player is hard. PGA TOUR Canada, PGA TOUR Latino- America, and the Forme Tour are three other Tours included in the PGA TOUR. And we might also refer to them as developmental. These three Tours combine to form the Korn Ferry Tour, a national circuit with 26–28 events that issue 50 PGA TOUR cards annually.

On the other hand, if you want to play on the LPGA Tour, you only have three options for developmental golf for women: the Women’s All Pro Tour, the National Women’s Golf Association, or the Cactus Tour. These Tours prepare the women for the Symetra Tour, which is the LPGA Tour’s (ideally) counterpart to the PGA TOUR’s Korn Ferry Tour.
Nonetheless, whether is the ladies’ Tour or men’s, getting the Tour card of both the LPGA as well as the PGA Tour is hard. Some wait for years to receive one. However, if you’re good enough to deserve the membership, it won’t be long before you start competing at the grandest stage of professional golf.
