Paul McGinley sets sights on double Olympic gold

Paul McGinley will head to Brazil and the Olympics Games host course next month in a first step to delivering two golfing gold medals to Ireland.

McGinley will captain the Ireland men’s and women’s team when golf returns to the Olympics in August.

Four-time major winning Rory McIlroy is assured of spearheading the Irish men’s team and with his partner for competition from August 11-14 to be either Shane Lowry or Graeme McDowell.
