A check on the PGA of Australia website shows a distinct lack of information about the Von Nida Tour.

The News has stopped after the SA PGA Championship, and does not even mention the lack of upcoming events and what is actually happening with the tour. The Photo Galleries don’t show anything from this year either.

The West Australian Open, the Queensland Open and the Queensland PGA all appear to have been cancelled.

The Von Nida Tour has also lost at least four other events from a few years ago, including the Queensland Masters (held in Townsville), the Cairns Classic, the Toyota Southern Classic (Woolooware) and the Volvo Classic (Bonville near Coffs Harbour).

Playing in the second last group, Leishman’s title defence looked shot when he trailed Bonhomme […]
