The TPG Tour (Tour de Profesionales de Golf) is the principal professional golf tour in Argentina. The tour was formed in 2007, following disputes within the PGA of Argentina, who had operated the main professional tour in the country in previous years.{{cite news |url=http://www1.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=903007 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130916021437/http://www1.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=903007 |url-status=dead |archive-date=September 16, 2013 |title=El Pato, otro motor para enriquecer la actividad |publisher=La Nation |date=April 24, 2007 |accessdate=2009-01-24 }}
The tour operated exclusively in Argentina in its inaugural season, but this changed in 2008 with the inclusion of the Carlos Franco Invitational, held in Paraguay. There were seventeen events in 2007 and sixteen in 2008, including the flagship Argentine Open and Argentine Masters, as well as the major regional opens, the South Open, Center Open, North Open and Coast Open.
The TPG Tour developed a close relationship with the higher level Tour de las Américas,{{cite news |url=http://www.tourdelasamericas.com/read.php?id=1025&lang=1 |title=2008 TLA Season Review |publisher=Tour de las Américas |date=December 23, 2008 |accessdate=2008-01-23}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}} with several events being co-sanctioned, which resulted in increased prize funds and stronger fields. Through the Tour de las Américas, some events were also co-sanctioned by the Challenge Tour and the Canadian Tour.
