The 2023 Asian Tour was the 28th season of the modern Asian Tour (formerly the Asian PGA Tour), the main professional golf tour in Asia (outside of Japan) since it was established in 1995.
The season marked a switch of format in the Order of Merit, which saw it become a points-based system, rather than based on money earned.[1]
The following table lists official events during the 2023 season.[2] [3]
