Rose took the men’s and Park the women’s gold in 2016
After being part of the Olympics in 1900 and 1904, golf made a comeback in the 2016 Rio Games, with a select 60-player field. Great Britain’s Justin Rose took the gold ahead of Sweden’s Henrik Stensen and American Matt Kuchar. Among the women, Korea’s Inbee Park, New Zealand’s Lydia Ko and China’s Shanshan Feng finished in that order. India’s Anirban Lahiri and S.S.P. Chawrasia along with Aditi Ashok could not make much of an impression.More Related News
