Brooks Koepka, Tyrrell Hatton, Louis Oosthuizen, Thomas Pieters, Adam Scott and Marcel Siem all reportedly have pulled their names from competing in the Olympics this year

LIV Golf participants Brooks Koepka, Tyrrell Hatton and Louis Oosthuizen have all requested to be left out of the Olympics, according to Spanish outlet ElPeriodiGolf.

As it stands, Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay all would make it ahead of Koepka. For Hatton, the Brit would have a chance to qualify, with only Matt Fitzpatrick and Tommy Fleetwood ahead of the No. 16-ranked golfer. "Yeah, another ," he continued. "There's three Spanish guys that we're all kind of close and they have a lot of more tournaments than I do. It's obviously probably my biggest plan and just hopefully playing the Olympics, that'd be great."
