South Korean women's world number three golfer Park In-Bee said Monday she will compete in the Rio Olympics after hinting last month that she may miss the Games due to a thumb injury. The injury had kept Park from the US Women's Open in San Martin, California and the Meijer LPGA Classic in Michigan as she focused on nursing her sprained thumb. The 27-year-old, who also suffered a back injury that forced her to take a month-long break at the beginning of the season, said in June she would pass her spot at the Olympics to someone else if she did not recover fully in time.
