Golf pros lend support to Oympic bid.Several professional golfers have given their backing to a bid to see golf included in the 2016 games.

And keen golf fans who want to show their support for UK golfers at the games have plenty of time to find the right golf fashion outfit to look stylish at the event.

Padraig Harrington, Colin Montgomerie and Tiger Woods are among 18 golfers who have pledged their personal support for the golf cause.

Peter Dawson, chief executive of the R&A and joint secretary of the IGF, said that it is important for as many golf pros as possible to get behind the cause.

"It is imperative that the best players in the world support golf's Olympic effort in order to give us the best chance of being selected by the IOC to participate in the 2016 Olympic Games," he said.

Other sports up for inclusion at the Olympics include baseball and rugby.
