All three Rio Olympic men’s golf medalists miss Tokyo Games qualification

The Tokyo Olympic men’s golf tournament is set to produce three new medalists.

All three Rio medalists — Justin Rose, Henrik Stenson and Matt Kuchar — failed to qualify outright for Tokyo.

The Olympic men’s golf field of 64 is drawn from the world rankings after this weekend’s U.S. Open.

Rose, Stenson and Kuchar went into the U.S. Open outside of outright qualification, and none made the cut at Torrey Pines.

Rose, who in Rio became the first Olympic golf champion since 1904, is ranked highest of the trio at No.
