Golf has been part of the Olympic Games on several occasions. It was first included in the Olympic program in 1900 in Paris and again in 1904 in St. Louis. After that, golf was removed from the Olympic program and was not part of the Summer Olympics until 2016 in Rio de Janeiro.<\/span><\/p>

The reintroduction of golf to the Olympics after 112 years of absence was the result of efforts by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the International Golf Federation (IGF), which worked to promote golf worldwide and include the sport in a global event like the Olympics. Both men and women compete in the Olympic golf tournaments, with a total of 60 players in each category, and the tournament is played as \"stroke play,\" meaning the players' scores are calculated based on the total number of strokes taken over four days of the tournament.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The decision to include golf in the 2016 Olympics was made in 2009, with the aim of increasing the sport's popularity and showcasing the world's best golfers on the global stage. Since then, golf has become a regular part of the Olympic Games, and it was again included in the program at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
