Australian Adam Scott has withdrawn from the olympics too.

Really bad news for Olympic golf....:facepalm: He and Jason Day would made a very strong "team" for Australia..

 

 it's a shame have an Olympic Sport where its best athletes don't want to take part on it  :wacko:

South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen (Ranked 12) has also withdrawn. A couple more big names and we could hit point where people feeling neutral to the idea will drop out to rest.

Im afraid that same will be with tennis in 2020 because there is no points for ranking.

 

I don't think points are a huge deal. The culture is also a bit different in tennis. Everyone playing tennis now grew up watching their idols playing at the Olympics, it essentially has become part of their schedule. Golf doesn't have that and it will take these pioneers to set things on the right track. Of course losing more top 15 players will not be helpful for the sport.

:RSA Charl Schwartzel (ranked 20th) has withdrawn. He was Louis Oosthuizen's replacement. The spot has now been pushed down to Jaco Van Zyl.

Exactly my thoughts! I think it's really bad for the olympic future of golf, but I totally undersand the players, they dream is to win the majors, the ryders cup, those were the dreams that they grew with, not winning an olympic medal...

I don't think it's too woriisome yet. If tennis is anything to go by, the first tournament in Seoul was missing a lot of top tennis players (Wilander, Lendl, Becker, Noah, etc.)

 

It takes some time to establish it.

None the less several of the absolute top players have embraced it and some even mention it as the target of the season.

I'm not too worried...

    • Important information on team Aerials.   There is no AIN`s team at the start list of the world cup despite of the fact that belorussians have enough athletes to have a team.   https://medias4.fis-ski.com/pdf/2026/FS/8119/2026FS8119SLF1.pdf
    • By the way. It looks like no AIN`s will be in biathlon by the start of the Olympics. Russians filed an appeal to CAS to get AIN statuses in biathlon. But IBU did not agree to have hearings with short procedure. So the decisons are not expected before the end of qulifying period. (FIS could do the same but its top-officials prefer to help russians be back as quick as possible).   I would like to see Dolidovich at the Games. Because she is a real refugee of the relatively high level.
