To bad the US isn't good enough to medal as of right now. Maybe by 2016
I kind of doubt it, seems like we're still pretty far behind countries like New Zealand, South Africa, England, etc. But I hope you're right.
We are, but we have made some pretty good strides the last couple years, compared to where we have been. I'm hoping in 2016 we can place between 4-7, that would be an amazing showing, as of now.
What'll be so good about Golf in the Olympics? The best players in the world face off against each other almost every week and four times a year there is a really huge tournament they all play in... in fact, I think there is one going on right now. It'll be the same as Olympic tennis and soccer... no one will give a crud.
