The 2020 Olympic Games is happening in 2021, and Illinois has a few golfers competing in the men’s golf competition.
Thomas Pieters and Thomas Detry, both of Belgium, are competing for their home country and are looking quite strong early on.
Out of the two, Detry is trailing with a first-round -1, which has him sitting in a tie for 31st place.
