If you are staying up through the wee hours of the night to watch the Tokyo Olympics, you are bonkers. And I love it! Men’s golf kicks off Wednesday (6:30 p.m.-3 a.m., Golf Channel) with just a 60-player field at the Kasumigaseki Country Club.
Collin Morikawa, coming off a win at The Open enters this event as the +750 favorite to win the gold , followed by fellow American teammates Xander Schauffele (+900) and Justin Thomas (+1100). Rounding out the top five in the betting odds are Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama (+1200) and Norway’s Viktor Hovland (+1200).
Men’s golf was re-introduced to the Olympics in 2016 after a 112-year hiatus but that was in Rio de Janeiro. So, we have no course history, a small 60-player field, and 72-hole stroke play with no cut.
The information we can gather is that British player Justin Rose won the 2016 Olympic gold medal by shooting 16-under and did so making 17 total birdies. With that, I’m looking for players who can strike the ball well, make birdies and avoid bogeys.
The big names will get the attention, but these are the three players I like to contend in men’s golf in Tokyo.
Mito Pereira (Chile)

Top 10: +450
To win a medal: +3000

Dustin Johnson and the 15 Golfers Who Best Represent the Future of American Golf
Recently, I said that the era of Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelsonbeing the golf standards of professional golf is beyond us.
Woods will be 36 at the end of the year and Mickelson turns 41 in June. Truthfully, it's not just them. Other than Tiger and Phil, Jim Furyk, Zach Johnson, Lucas Glover, David Duval, Ben Curtis, Todd Hamilton, Stewart Cink, David Toms, Rich Beem and Shaun Micheel are the only Americans to win majors since the year 2000.
Some of them are still going strong, while some have fallen into virtual obscurity. Regardless of which of those categories these golfers are a part of, none of them are younger than 30, and only Curtis and and Glover have yet to turn 35.
Golf's a game where players enjoy success into their 40's, so we may still see some of these names for a while, but their best days are likely past us.
Currently, German Martin Kaymer and South Africans Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel are the only under-30 golfers to have won major championships. It is worth noting that those three represent the last three major champions.
In recent years, we have also seen a huge influence of young, International players. We have seen Edoardo Molinari (30
