It wont be a part of the games in Beijing in 2008 or in London in 2012 but will golf be included in the line up for the Summer Olympics in 2016? If the Professional Tours have their way, it will be.

Originally the PGA Tour had opposed the idea for various reasons but commissioner Tim Finchem is leading the charge in a new bid that is definitely seen as having some legs.

Golf hasn’t been an Olympic Sport since 1904.
