Grading country uniforms at 2024 Olympics men’s golf competition

The men’s golf competition is well underway at the 2024 Olympics in Paris as Hideki Matsuyama led the way after the first 18 holes. Three years ago, the Japanese star was one of seven players who battled for the bronze medal in a playoff, an award that eventually went to C.T. Pan.
