The 2024 Olympics are 100 days out. On the golf front, we’re starting to get an idea of who will compete for the gold this summer in Paris.
This year will be golf’s third appearance in the Olympics since the sport returned in 2016 after a 112-year absence. So far the proceedings have been a mixed bag regarding turnout; a number of marquee names bowed out of the 2016 Rio Games due to fears of the Zika virus, and though star attendance improved at the COVID-delayed 2021 Olympics in Tokyo, some of the game’s biggest players still skipped the competition. Participation is expected to increase in 2024, however, so we decided to see who would represent their countries if qualifying ended today.
As a refresher, qualifying for the 2024 Olympics began in July 2022, with golfers accumulating points in an official Olympics Ranking that essentially mirrors the men’s and women’s World Ranking. The Albatros course at Le Golf National, site of the 2018 Ryder Cup, will host both 72-hole stroke-play tournaments, with the men’s Olympic competition being held Aug. 1-4. The women’s tournament starts three days after the men’s event ends, Aug. 7-10, before the closing ceremony Aug. 11. Both fields will have 60 players total, with at least one spot held for a golfer from the host country (France) if one does not otherwise qualify. No country can have more than four golfers competing, with all golfers ranked in the top 15 qualifying (up to the four golfer maximum for each country). After the top 15 in the ranking, golfers ranked 16th and lower will qualify with no more than two players from any one country eligible to compete.
Internal documents show that the International Golf Federation does not plan on releasing which players have opted out. However, Golf Digest has learned that Brooks Koepka, Adam Scott and Tyrrell Hatton are among a list of notable players who have requested to opt out of the 2024 Olympics. As of writing, no women players have formally requested to opt out.
