The Futures Tour is the second tier women's professional golf tour in the United States. It began in Florida in 1981 as the "Tampa Bay Mini Tour", but has since become a national tour and has been designated as the "Official developmental tour", of the main U.S. based women's golf tour, the LPGA Tour. The Tour features an annual schedule of nearly twenty events and had total prize money of $1.2 million in 2004. Players from all over the world play on the tour, including Europe, Asia, South Africa and Australia. The leading five money winners of the season earn a tour card for the following season's LPGA Tour, and other successful competitors receive direct entry to the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament, bypassing the sectional qualifiers. Futures Tour graduates include Laura Davies, Karrie Webb and Grace Park (golfer). Many of the contestants on The Golf Channel's ''The Big Break#The Big Break III: Ladies Only'', which aired in the Spring of 2005, play on the Futures Tour, including Danielle Amiee, who ended up being the overall champion. The other players from the show that play on the Futures Tour are Jan Dowling, Valeria Ochoa, Pamela Crikelair, who was the runner-up to Amiee, and Cindy Miller, who actually played on the LPGA Tour from 1979 to 1981, when she married former PGA TOUR player Allen Miller. Show cohost Stephanie Sparks played on the Futures Tour from 1996 to 1999. ==See also== *Professional golf tours ==External link== *[http://www.futurestour.com/ Official site] Professional golf tours
