Published: Last updated:
Team GB will be represented by Matt Fitzpatrick, Tommy Fleetwood, Charley Hull, and Georgia Hall in the golf events at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Great Britain’s hopes of Olympic glory in golf rest on the shoulders of Matt Fitzpatrick and Tommy Fleetwood in the men’s event, and Charley Hull and Georgia Hall in the women’s golf.
The four will be seeking to win a fourth-ever Olympic golf medal for Team GB.
The men’s Olympic golf event takes place 1-4 August, while the women are in action 7-10 August. Both are being held at Le Golf National, host of the 2018 Ryder Cup and regular home of the French Open on the DP World Tour.

Team GB Olympic golf history
Athens 1986
The inaugural Olympic Games did not feature golf.
Paris 1900
Golf became an Olympic sport for the first time in the second-ever Olympics. Walter Rutherford secured Silver for Great Britain while David Robertson brought home Bronze.
USA won gold in the men’s event and took gold, silver, and bronze in the women’s golf.
St Louis 1904
Only golfers from the United States of America competed, with 74 from America and three from Canada.
Rio de Janeiro 2016
Golf returned to the Olympics after a 112-year hiatus and Justin Rose marked the occasion by winning gold for Team GB.
Henrik Stenson (Sweden) and Matt Kuchar (USA) took silver and bronze, respectively.
Other Team GB golfers Danny Willett, Charley Hull, and Catriona Matthew finished outside the medal places.
Tokyo 2020 (hosted in 2021 due to Covid)
Team GB was represented by Paul Casey and Tommy Fleetwood in men’s golf, the latter a late replacement for Tyrrell Hatton who qualified but withdrew due to Covid.
Mel Reid and Jodie Ewart Shadoff represented Great Britain in the women’s golf, with Shadoff replacing Charley Hull and Georgia Hall, both of whom withdrew.
Casey finished T4, just outside the medal places.

Matt Fitzpatrick
Only one winless year since 2015 has shown his consistency, while the 2022 U.S. Open triumph established him as a major force, but the big events haven’t gone well this year. He finished 15 shots off Scottie Scheffler at The Masters, missed the cut at the PGA Championship, and struggled to a T64 finish at the US Open and T50 at Royal Troon.
He has a similarly iffy relationship with Le Golf National, with a best finish of T26 at the French Open and a handful of missed cuts. He missed out on automatic qualification for the 2018 Ryder Cup at Le Golf National and wasn’t given a captain’s pick.
Fitzpatrick joined Tyrrell Hatton and Lee Westwood in turning down the chance to represent Team GB at the 2020 Olympics.

Tommy Fleetwood
Few will arrive at Le Golf National with better vibes than the 33-year-old Merseysider. He shot a bogey-free final-round 66 here to win the 2017 French Open and was half of the ‘Moliwood’ partnership that was untouchable in the 2018 Ryder Cup.
A T-3 at this year’s Masters was his fourth top-five Major finish in three seasons, as the hunt for what feels like an ‘only-a-matter-of-time’ Major continues, although a missed cut at Royal Troon wasn’t inspiring.
Fleetwood represented Team GB at the 2020 Olympics after Tyrrell Hatton withdrew. He shot rounds of 70-69-64-70 to finish T16 on -11, seven shots behind gold medallist Xander Schauffele.

Charley Hull
Always the bridesmaid? The 28-year-old has six runner-up finishes since June 2023, more than any other player – male or female – on the top tours.
She refuses to rein in her ultra-aggressive approach, which is what makes her so exciting to watch.
She withdrew after six holes of the Aramco Team Series London in early July, blaming “ongoing pain in my right shoulder following a nasty fall”.
An opening-round 79 in her only start since, the Amundi Evian Championship, led to a missed cut, although a second-round 69 proved she’s not hampered by injury now.
Hull has a history of delivering on the toughest courses, which bodes well at Le Golf National.

Georgia Hall
A recent upturn in form has seen the 28-year-old record three top-20s in her last four starts, including a T3 at the Aramco Team Series London.
She hasn’t recorded a top-10 in a major for more than two years, which isn’t a good sign on a course as tough as Le Golf National.
