"Our Masters and Open teams feature a mixture of talented players from across the country. The team includes previous leaders and competitors from other sports, along with those who have good competition experience. Great Britain’s golfers performed exceptionally well four years ago earning a total of 16 medals, including a Team Gold. Green commented: "Our aim is a repeat of the Gold medal haul we achieved in Vienna in 2011, across all team and individual categories. The best part about representing Great Britain at an International Games is the spirit, togetherness and sense of family the Maccabi experience brings.
