While a large complaint about the Olympic golf field in Rio was the lack of star power, detractors will have a tough time making that same claim in 2021. World No. 1 and reigning US Open champion Jon Rahm will be representing Spain at the Olympics and is the heavy favorite with a near +800 gap between him and the next closest player.

The four players on Team USA are all ranked in the Top 30 of the Official World Golf Rankings, and the tournament was able to draw names like Rory McIlory, Viktor Hovland, Masters Champion Hideki Matsuyama, and more.

The max a team from one country can allow at the Olympics is four players, so it is impossible for the tournament to see all the amazing US players like Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Jordan Spieth, and more on the same team.

Instead, fans will be able to enjoy a truly unique competition over four days in Tokyo.

Those looking to bet on Olympic Golf can find very valuable odds on nearly every golfer after Rahm. A +400 price tag is too ridiculous in any stroke play event like this, so bettors are better off waiting for his price to drop mid-round or going with a different pick.

Sungjae Im at +3000 is a name that jumps off the board. Im just forwent his invitation to the Open Championship to focus on the Olympics due to a special circumstance. In his home country of South Korea, all men have to serve some sort of military service between the ages of 18 and 28.

One of the only ways to get out of this service is to win an Olympic medal. Im has that rare opportunity this month to accomplish this goal. Out of all the competitors, Sungjae certainly has the most the play for.
