Zika Scaring Athletes Away from the Games As the 2016 Olympic games draw near, the number of high-profile athletes choosing to skip Rio grows, thanks to concerns over the mosquito-borne Zika Virus that is prevalent in Rio de Janeiro. The most recent athlete bowing out is world famous golfer Rory McIlroy from Ireland, who announces on June 22, 2016, that he will not be attending. He joins American cyclist Tejay van Garderen and the golfers Marc Leishman of Australia and Vijay Singh of Fiji who also will not be participating in the games. Photo source: AP Photo/Charlie Riedel
