Is greatness on the horizon?

Chinese golfers will be competitive by the time the 2020 Olympics roll around, Huang Fei, the coach of the women's national team, predicted at the China Amateur Golf Championship in Beijing.

Golf's inclusion in the Rio Olympics has considerably raised the sport's status in China. To prepare for the Games, the Chinese golf national team was set up at the end of May. The national lineup now has 10 golfers for each gender, with five female professionals and nine male professionals.
