(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 19 - Italian No. 1 and Italy's only ever
major winner, 2018 British Open winner Francesco Molinari, is to
miss the Tokyo Olympics through injury, the Turinese golfer said
after missing the cut at this year's Open at Sandwich.
Molinari said he would not recover in time from a back injury
that affected his performance at Royal St George's, and Renato
Paratore was ready to replace him to partner Guido Migliozzi,
who finished fourth in the US Open, in Japan. (ANSA).
