How much should an Olympic golf gold medal be worth for a playerās legacy?
I think it is different for the men than it is for the women.
For the men, winning the Olympics is on par with winning a mid-tier PGA Tour event.For the women, itās the equivalent of a major. In fact, it rises above the worst two majors on the womenās calendar (The Chevron Championship and The Amundi Evian Championship).
Why is that the case? Itās a matter of buy-in and exposure. If you were ranking every menās professional golf tournament this year, Olympic golf wouldnāt be in the top 10. The men donāt really need the Olympics. Itās a 60-man field that, quite frankly, is much weaker than signature events with even less players. There are probably only 20 or so guys with a legitimate shot to win.
There is certainly prestige with winning any Olympic medal, which is why the event is perhaps slightly ahead of Tour events nobody watches. At the same time, I donāt think it even sniffs a tournament like the Players Championship in terms of importance.
The guys take it seriouslyāespecially those from smaller countriesābut pretty much all of them would rather win majors or secure their Tour card.
A lot of prominent guys skipped the first two editions. A few prominent guys arenāt qualified for this yearās tournament. That alone leaves a bit of an empty feeling.
But on the womenās side, there is a gravitas to the Olympics. Some players talk about it being the pinnacle of their golf lives. Qualifying is intense, especially because a variety of countries have their fair share of top players.
The women donāt get this level of attention throughout the year, so itās a critically important stage to showcase their talent. The men donāt need the Olympics but the women do. That changes how much a gold is worth.
