Is Zika going to spoil the Olympics?
The introduction of men's golf at the Olympics has been a bloody farce from start to finish. I hope the IGF take a long hard look at what they've done. It should never have been a straightforward 72-hole strokeplay event, for a start, when they had the opportunity to do all sorts of fun things that none of the other events on tour do, like making it matchplay, and maybe having singles and foursomes in both men's and women's and combining results up to a team medal. A bit more "representing my country" national pride might have enticed more of the multi-millionaires along than just "winning it for myself"?
