GOLF.com writes Japan's media coverage of the sport offers a "window into the country’s insatiable appetite for the game." To "understand how important hosting Olympic golf is to the country, it’s helpful to take a closer look at the Japanese golf media." The "passion for the game of golf exhibited by the Japanese fans is reflected in the equally ardent media coverage of it." One can "walk into any convenience store in Japan and you will find rows of weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly golf magazines." There are "as many online outlets, too, their foreign correspondents posting updates throughout each week’s event; time-marked, of course, at intervals throughout the night."
