It all comes down to this at the Olympic women’s golf competition.
But will a storm wreak havoc on the proceedings?
There was talk of reducing the event to 54 holes due to the combination of extreme heat and storms forecasted over the weekend. The final round is still scheduled for Saturday (Friday night in North America), though officials may push play to Sunday if weather permits.
The East Course is playing 6,648 yards. The tournament has 60 players, no cut and it is scheduled to be a 72-hole stroke-play competition.
FROM BETH ANN NICHOLS: What’s worth more to a top American female, a gold medal or a major? Perhaps Tokyo will tell us.
The final round starts Saturday morning local time, but there is a 13-hour time difference so for golf fans in North America, the final round will be live in prime time on Friday night.
