Don’t get us wrong – we were very excited about golf coming back to the Olympics, but due to unfortunate unforeseen circumstances, the location isn’t currently a safe location to go to. It’s a big risk.

We also understand how much the Olympics helps the economy…but this year might not be the year.

Ask yourselves this:

If your child, or significant other, or best friend wanted to go to the Rio Olympics…would you want them to go?

Don’t judge these athletes for choosing not to attend. In the end, it’s their decision and they are just watching out for themselves – and might even have a mother, father, spouse or friend watching out for them too!
