Changes for 1982
It was the first year that the schedule included a tournament outside Europe, visiting North Africa for the Tunisian Open.
There were several changes from the previous season, with the addition of the Tunisian Open, the Car Care Plan International and the Sanyo Open, the return of the Portuguese Open; and the Trophée Lancôme became a counting event for the first time.
Shortly after the start of the season, the Greater Manchester Open was cancelled.
