Japanese term or phrase: PGAグローイングツアー
Context, description of a golf course:
過去PGAグローイングツアー・つるや大阪オープンゴルフ選手権を開催した本格的コースである。

I get no results on Google for PGA Growing Tour or PGA Glowing Tour, neither of which make any sense anyway.

Someone with knowledge of golf, please grant me your wisdom!

Thanks.

growing tour


Explanation:
As the second link explains, a "growing tour" is a tour for new professional golfers, and "grow" here specifically refers to a golfer that is "growing" as a professional. The first link shows its actual use.

PGA growing tour


Explanation:
it is 'growing tour' not 'glowing', and it is tour/tornament for 'growing' or developping golfers, organised by PGA (Professional Golfers' Association). i've put 'g' and 't' in lower cases as usually PGA doesn't use the term growing tour.

by the way, PGA nowadays is often called 'PGA of America', or Professional Golfers' Association of America, obviously to clarify that it is an American association.
