This article explains how to watch a men's Olympic golf live stream from Paris 2024 – including information on how you can watch from anywhere with a VPN.
Can Jon Rahm rescue what has been a mediocre win-less season so far, after his controversial move to LIV, by winning golf at the Olympics? He enters the final round tied in the gold medal position with defending champion Xander Schauffele.
They go out in the final group at 6.39am EST/11.39am BST with Tommy Fleetwood, who is only one shot behind them. Fleetwood has a winning record round this course having gone 4-1 in the 2018 Ryder Cup, a year after he won the Open de France on this track.
Nicolai Højgaard’s third-round 62, equalling the course record, has sent him rocketing 28 places up the men's Olympic golf leaderboard into a tie for fourth with Hideki Matsuyama who has gone 63-68-71 this week. They are on -11, three shots behind the leading pair. A shot further back is a quartet of Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Tom Kim and Thomas Detry.
Sixty golfers are taking part in the 2024 Olympic men’s golf tournament on the Albatros course at Le Golf National. The men’s Olympic tournament, a 72-hole individual strokeplay, finishes on August 4. Qualification for the Olympics golf 2024 was based on the Official World Golf Rankings. The top 15 in the rankings qualified with the proviso that no more than four players from any one nation can qualify this way. This has meant that several Americans in the top 15 have been unable to get in to the Olympics. The four who did are Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, Wyndham Clark and Collin Morikawa. After this, qualification was still based on the world rankings but now allowing only a maximum of two players from any one country.

How to watch men's Olympics Golf 2024: live stream from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching Olympics Golf 2024 lives streams via your usual service?
You can still tune in thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for sports fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite – as recommended by the tech experts at TechRadar and Tom's Guide – is NordVPN.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Download and install a VPN – as we say, our top choice is NordVPN.
2. Connect to the appropriate server location – open the VPN app, hit 'choose location' and select the appropriate location.
3. Go to the broadcaster's stream – head to your home broadcaster's site or app and watch just as if you were sitting on your sofa at home.
