The U.S. Open will draw most of the fanfare in golf during June, but the end of the event will also mark a critical moment in the Olympic golf calendar.

The 60-player field for the 2024 Olympics will be set on the Monday following the U.S. Open.

The United States will have four players participate in the event, as Americans dominate the top 15 of the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR). Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele and Wyndham Clark were effectively locked into positions for Team USA, but Collin Morikawa staved off tough competition from Patrick Cantlay to clinch the final spot for the Americans.

Meanwhile, most other countries were hoping to qualify two players for the Olympics to take aim at a gold medal.

Here’s a look at how qualifying works for Olympic golf and the full, 60-player men’s field for Paris 2024.

How to qualify for the 2024 Olympics in golf

A total of 120 golfers will participate in the 2024 Olympics — 60 in the men’s competition and 60 in the women’s. That’s the same number each had during the 2021 Tokyo Olympics — and countries will be limited to a maximum of four golfers in each field.

Two spots — one in the men’s field and one in the women’s — will be set aside for France, which is hosting the Olympic Games.

The Olympics uses the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR) to help select the rest of its participants.

The top 15 players in the OWGR automatically qualify for the Olympics, though a maximum of four golfers per country can be selected from that group. For example, the United States has nine golfers currently in the top 15 of the OWGR, but the country will only take the four highest-ranking members of that group.

After selecting participants from the top 15, the Olympic committee looks at the golfers outside the top 15. Up to two players per country can be selected from this group — provided the country represented does not already have two or more golfers chosen for a squad.

For example, Tommy Fleetwood is presently inside the top 15 of the OWGR, so England will only be able to take one additional player with it to Paris. That would presently be 16th-ranked Matt Fitzpatrick while 20th-ranked Tyrrell Hatton would miss out.

That process can get a bit confusing, but the easiest way to remember this is that only the countries with three-plus golfers in the top 15 will be able to take more than two participants to Paris. As a result, the United States seems likely to be the only team with four golfers competing in the 60-person fields.

Current Olympic golf rankings

The U.S. Open marked the final chance for golfers to improve their standing in the Olympic Golf Rankings (OGR). Canada’s Corey Conners and Spain’s David Puig took advantage of that opportunity, as they leapfrogged their countrymen Adam Hadwin and Jorge Campillo to earn a spot in the field of 60 for the event.

Below is a full look at the field of 60 golfers who will be invited to participate in the 2024 Olympics.
