The International Golf Federation has announced the qualifiers for the men’s competition for the Tokyo Olympics.
Garrick Higgo and Christiaan Bezuidenhout will represent South Africa.
Unfortunately, world No 12 Louis Oosthuizen elected to turn down his spot, confirming as much on social media shortly before the announcement was made.
The top 15 players qualified, with a limit of four golfers per country that can qualify this way.
The United States is the only country with four players. The remaining spots went to the highest-ranked players from countries that did not already have two golfers qualified.
The men’s tournament takes place from July 29 to August 1.
