The 2009 Tour de las Américas season consisted of 14 golf tournaments, hosted in eight different countries across Latin America. Four events were played in both Argentina and Colombia, two in Chile and Venezuela and one in Mexico and Paraguay.
The Tour de las Américas continued its close association with the PGA European Tour, with one event, the Club Colombia Masters being co-sanctioned by the Challenge Tour, Europe's official development tour.
The Order of Merit was won by Sweden's Peter Gustafsson.
