20 16 The Organizing Committee of Rio Olympic Games listed golf as an Olympic sport. Eight of the world's top 15 golfers participated in this Olympic Games, and 12 of the world's top 15 golfers participated. Except for the first four men who failed to participate in the competition for personal reasons, all the other players failed to meet the standards according to the qualification system.
Golf returned to the Olympic Games after a century's wait of 1 12. The top four players in the world have retired for different reasons, which makes people worry that golf will be "kicked out" of the Olympic Games again. Although not the best and top players in the world participate in the competition, it cannot be said that the sport has been damaged or the competitive level has decreased just because someone has not participated in the competition.
