Schedule

The season saw an attempt to rebrand the existing set of tournaments as a pan-Nordic tour, and launch the Nordic Golf Tour (NGT). However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic the events outside Sweden were cancelled and the remaining Swedish events were removed from the 2020 LET Access Series (LETAS) schedule. Most tournaments held in Sweden went ahead, but with a reduced purse. [2]
