Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The number in brackets after each winner's name is the number of EPD Tour events they had won up to and including that tournament. It is rare for someone to accumulate many wins on the EPD Tour as success at this level usually leads to promotion to the Challenge Tour.
  2. ^ NGL − Nordic Golf League.
