Inami  misses the put for par, so ball back in Korda’s court…

Men's gold was decided with the last stroke.

 

Now we are possibly heading for the same conclusion in the women's game. How amazing for the Olympic golf.

Ko blows it. Korda really has everything in her hands now...

[dcro 10,210]

Gold for Korda!

 

Ko vs Inami play-off for silver.

 

Ashok 4th.

4th. There are a lot of oddities because of the insane 1904 Olympics.

Whoops. That was meant to be female. I think being a multiple medalist in the sport of Golf would be incredibly difficult. The fields are so deep and golf is one of those sports that anyone can win it.

She's also the first to medal in multiple individual events / to medal at two different Olympics. And frankly the 1904 Olympics as a whole were just sort of a joke that I humour only because Canada did relatively well xD

 

And ya, Ko medaling twice is a huge accomplishment. Golf is incredibly high variant (see: the boy from Bratislava winning silver :P ) and the field has a lot of depth - there are just a *lot* of good golfers out there.
