It is based at Buckinghamshire Golf Club near London in England. Like many UK-based sports organisations it is a company limited by guarantee, a legal structure which enables it to focus on maximising returns to its members through prize money, rather than on making profits for investors.
The tour is run by a board of directors and a Players’ Council. Most of the players on the tour are European, with members from more than 40 countries internationally. The tour operates tournaments across five continents.
