Leaders of the European and U.S. tours have held discussions with IOC president Jacques Rogge about including golf at the 2016 Olympics. European Tour chief executive George O’Grady said he and PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem met Rogge on Thursday in Lausanne, Switzerland, to discuss the sport’s chances of joining the Olympics. Golf has not been an Olympic sport since 1904, when George Lyon of Canada won the gold medal. Talks on its inclusion have been held intermittently for the past 25 years.
