The 2024 Olympics golf competitions are in the books and the U.S. leaves Paris maintaining its big lead on the medal table.
Scottie Scheffler shot a final-round 62 in the men’s competition at Le Golf National to clinch the top prize by a shot over Great Britain’s Tommy Fleetwood, who won his nation’s second-ever silver medal. Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama won bronze, the second-ever medal in golf for his country.
Lydia Ko won gold in the women’s competition and has completed the trifecta, after winning silver in 2016 and bronze in 2021. She also accounts for all three of the medals New Zealand has won at the Olympics.
With Germany’s 2024 silver, courtesy of Esther Henseleit, there are now 11 nations that have earned a medal in the five renditions of golf in the Olympics. The first two times were 1900 and 1904, then there was a 112-year hiatus before returning in 2016.
