1992 was the second year with Lancôme as the main sponsor, and the tour remained the only regional ladies golf tour in Europe operating as a feeder tour for the LET. For the first time no events were scheduled opposite LET events. The number of events were limited and prize money somewhat decreased due to the Early 1990s recession.[2]

Carin Hjalmarsson won three tournaments and her first of two consecutive Order of Merit.

Schedule

The season consisted of 7 tournaments played between May and August, where one event was included on the 1992 Ladies European Tour.[2]
