Golf is back in the Olympics. I don't follow golf too closely but I feel like this is a chance for the sport to showcase itself not only to the United States, but to the whole world. Golf is a fun but frustrating sport for some of us, so it'll be cool to see it as an Olympic sport again. The last time golf was in the Olympics was over 100 years ago in 1904 which were in St. Louis, Missouri. This was the first time the Olympics were ever held outside of Europe. This summer the Olympics are being held in Brazil.
The 72 hole course they will be playing on is the Rio de Janeiro Olympic golf course built at the Reserva de Marapendi. This is will be good for the sport of golf to not only show off the sport but to show how diverse and how big the globalization of the sport has gotten.
