A group of Brazilian businessmen have stepped in to assure at least the short-term viability of the Olympic Golf Course in Rio, according to the president of the International Golf Federation.Things are looking a little better, theres a group of people who have come together that have a relationship with the land owner there, and theyve re-engaged enough of the greens staff to keep the maintenance going, said Peter Dawson, the former chief executive of the R&A and current president of the IGF. The greens staff are now being paid, which they werent.Multiple media reports following last years Games in Rio painted a dire picture for the course, which was built specifically for the Olympics. Those reports indicated the course was attracting few players (there are about 20,000 golfers in Brazil) and the greens staff was not being paid.The funding from the new group has given the Brazilian Golf Confederation, which now owns the layout, time to develop a long-term plan to keep the course open.Im really hopeful its going to make a go of it, whereas maybe two months ago I had a lot of doubts, Dawson said.
