Golf has been reinstated for the 2016 and 2020 Games after a vote by the International Olympic Committee. The Golf sport has received large support in votes after top athletes and officials shown their support and presentation, including a taped video message from Tiger Woods which he has indicated that he would play in the Olympics if golf were accepted for 2016.
"There are millions of young golfers worldwide who would be proud to represent their country," Woods said from the Presidents Cup in San Francisco. "It would be an honor for anyone who plays this game to become an Olympian."
Golf was approved 63-27 with two abstentions and this certainly a great news to all golf fans!
