Golf was introduced into the Olympics in 1900. The 1904 Games were the last time golf was contested.
Golf is actually an Olympic sport. It was reintroduced to the Olympics in 2016 at the Rio de Janeiro Games after being absent for 112 years. Golf was previously part of the Olympics in 1900 and 1904, then removed due to lack of global participation and organizational support. Why it was not included for so long: Limited global reach at the time. Scheduling conflicts with major professional tours. Lack of interest from top players in the early 20th century. Logistical challenges in organizing a global field. Today, both men's and women's golf are part of the Summer Olympic Games.
