The 2024 Paris Olympics are set to begin in just under 200 days, and as the 2024 season looms large, players from countries all across the globe will be working hard to earn one of the coveted 60 spots in the field at Le Golf National.
Two hundred days might seem like a long way away, but the Olympics are rapidly approaching, and with a full slate of worldwide events before the field is finalized on June 24, 2024, the best of the best in women’s golf will need to rise to the top quickly over the next six months if they want a chance to represent their country in Paris, France.
Eligibility to compete in the Games will be determined by the Olympic Golf Rankings, which are calculated using a player’s position in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings. The top 15 players in the Rolex Rankings will qualify for the Olympics, with a four-person limit for each country represented in the top 15.
From No. 16 onward in the Rolex Rankings, eligibility will be based on world ranking, and each country that does not already have two or more players ranked in the top 15 will have a two-person limit.
A total of 60 players will tee it up in the women’s golf competition that will be held at Le Golf National from August 7 to August 10, 2024. As the host country for this year’s Olympics, France is guaranteed one of those 60 spots.
