Golfer Becomes First To Declare Himself Out Of Olympic Games He Wasn't Going To Qualify For Anyway

Andy Sullivan says he wouldn't go to the Rio Games because of fears over Zika and security. Which is good to know since he's replacement option five should Danny Willett or Justin Rose withdraw.

Telling the Nuneaton News...

"I mean this as no disrespect to the Olympics but for me even if I get in the team I would not be going to Rio.

"You have to look at where it is being held, there is a dangerous virus going round, plus the security is said to be not water tight, they are all reasons why I just cannot go. It is a dangerous place to go and when you run the rule over the risk, it is not one I will be taking."

Don't worry, Andy it's a decision you won't have to make.

The male golfer exodus from the Games has officially reached the surreal stage.
