Who Has Won Medals in Golf at the Previous Olympics?
Golf was reintroduced to the Olympic Games in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro. However, this will be the fifth time golf has been included in the Olympics, as it was an event in the 1900 Paris Olympics and 1904 St. Louis Olympics before it was removed.
With Zika and Covid-19 causing notable players to miss the Olympic Games the last two times, it will be interesting to see everyone duel it out on the world stage in what could be called the true first Olympic golf event in over a century.
