After months of indecision over who to represent, Rory McIlroy announced Wednesday that he will play for Ireland - not Britain - at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The 25-year-old McIlroy, who is from Northern Ireland, was eligible to play for either Ireland or Team GB when golf makes its return to the Olympics in Brazil for the first time since 1904.
