2015 Nordic Golf League

The 2015 Nordic Golf League was the 17th season of the Nordic Golf League, one of four third-tier tours recognised by the European Tour. In July, it was announced that all Nordic Golf League events, beginning with the Master Promo Open, would receive Official World Golf Ranking points at the minimum level of 4 points for a winner of a 54-hole event.^[1]

Schedule[]

The season consisted of 28 events.^[2] With the exception of a four-event Winter Series held in Spain, and the Ecco German Masters, all tournaments were held in Norway, Sweden, Finland, or Denmark. Although the ranking was calculated in euros, many prize funds were set in Danish krone or Swedish krona.
