Golf & Rugby 7s.

IMHO it's quite absurd that golf, along with tennis & football is now at the Olympics as I'd imagine it's low on the radar of Tiger Woods to win a gold medal when he can win a major.
 
Whatever next? Formula One Racing? Darts?


Oh wait, Silly me, they aren't Sports.
 
The elected sports are supposed to represent the culture of the host nation... Can't remember Brazil ever being synonymous with Golf or Rugby 7's. But I suppose Football, Jiu-Jitsu and Volleyball are already fully fledged Olympic Sports.

maybe F1 has a chance then!
 
Over my Dead, Decaying Body will Driving really fast be an Olympic Sport.
