Golf At The 1904 Summer Olympics
At the 1904 Summer Olympics, two golf events were contested – men's individual and team tournaments. The competitions were held from September 17, 1904 to September 24, 1904.
It was the second and final appearance of the sport at the Olympics until the upcoming 2016 Summer Olympics. The men's team event was new, replacing the women's individual. The men's individual event was switched to a match play tournament rather than the stroke play used 4 years earlier.

Famous quotes containing the words golf and/or summer:
“My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“yet another summer loath to go
Although the scythes hang in the apple trees.”
—Louise Bogan (1897–1970)
