Jon Rahm, David Puig, Carlota Ciganda and Azahara Muñoz already have exclusive golf bags to carry their clubs during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, which will take place between August 1 and 4 for the men's competition, and from August 7 to 10 for the women's tournament.

The bags that the members of the Spanish Olympic golf teams will carry at Le Golf National, on the outskirts of Versailles, are ready, fresh from the factory and with the corresponding embroidery that makes them highly valued distinctive items.

In white, red and yellow, with the word Spain on their sides, the Olympic rings on their front and, with an identifying component that makes them unique –with the engraved name of each of the four members of the Spanish golf team–, the bags have their own and indistinguishable identity, perfectly visible from many meters away on the golf course.

The Olympic tournaments involve 60 golfers in both the male and female categories, who will compete for gold, silver and bronze medals through a 72-hole stroke play competition held over four days of 18 holes.

Golf is back in the Olympic Games

The discipline of golf was present at the Olympic Games in the Paris 1900 and Saint Louis 1904 editions, disappearing from the program in 1908. Its reinstatement became effective on October 9, 2009 when the IOC Selection Committee, meeting that day in its 121st plenary session in Copenhagen, once again included golf in the Olympic Program.

 Officially reinstated at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, England's Justin Rose and South Korea's Inbee Park won the gold medals at stake in a tournament where Spain earned two Olympic diplomas thanks to Rafael Cabrera-Bello (who finished fifth) and Sergio García (eighth). In the women's category, Azahara Muñoz finished twenty-first and Carlota Ciganda thirty-ninth. 

Subsequently, at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games – held in 2021 as a result of the Covid pandemic – the victory went to Americans Xander Schauffele and Nelly Korda. 

The Spanish participation resulted in 38th and 59th place finishes for Adri Arnaus and Jorge Campillo in the men's competition, while Carlota Ciganda (29th) and Azahara Muñoz (50th) also finished outside the medal positions. Jon Rahm tested positive for Covid just four days before the start of the competition and was unable to participate.
