The Rio Olympics will include two sports returning to the Games for the first time in nearly a century.
Golf, last played at St. Louis 1904, and rugby, last played at Paris 1924, were added to the Olympic program in 2009, with implementation happening in 2016.
The Rio Olympic golf tournaments will be individual 72-hole stroke-play affairs, with separate men’s and women’s fields of 60 golfers each.
The fields will be determined by world rankings with a maximum of four men or women per nation (and no more than two if at least one of the golfers is outside the top 15 in the world rankings).
