OK, that's a legitimate view. Badminton, Basketball, Field hockey, Football, Handball, Table tennis, Tennis, biking, Volleyball, Rhythmic Gymnastics, Trampoline.

I wonder about their thinking though. Golf has a big audience but also has bigger stages than the Olympics. It seems like they'll be hosting a minor golf tourney rather than being the biggest stage for something else.

Good luck Griff!

Maybe it will end up being truly amateur.
Being practical, what better to attract major donors/backers into sponsoring the Olympics than promising to build a world class golf course?

I always say that any activity that depends on judges (not referees) is not a sport. But the common understanding now is that any activity that shows fit women's asses in detail is the most important olympic sport.

Nipples, don't forget the nipples.
