WATCH: Celine Boutier gets overwhelmed by the fans’ endless applause at the 2024 Paris Olympics

Celine Boutier is one of the two players competing in the women's golf event at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The women's golf event is being held at Le Golf National in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France.

Celine Boutier was on the top of the leaderboard after the first round. She scored 7-under 65 on the first day, including seven birdies against a bogey in the first round.

However, she had a disappointing second round where she carded 4-over 76. She scored a birdie against two bogeys and two double bogeys. After the end of the second round, Boutier was tied for sixth.

She was given a grand welcome on Friday, August 9 in the third round at the first tee. The video of the moment was shared by X user "Sam Harrop", who captioned the post:

"This is awesome. Such an incredible ovation, Boutier almost seems embarrassed!"

The crowd support has been insane at the women's golf event at the 2024 Olympics. Talking about it after the first round when she scored 7-under 65, Boutier said (via Olympic Golf):

"I'm really over the moon with the way the tournament started for me. Every time I play at home I never want to disappoint people, so it's always nice to be able to give them that."

At the time of writing, Celine Boutier scored eight consecutive pars on the front nine in the third round and is tied for seventh. Currently, Morgane Metraux is on the top of the leaderboard. The Swiss golfer is eight under after seven holes in the third round. Talking about the crowd support, she said (via Olympic Golf):

"It's fun to know there's so many people supporting me. I'm just happy I can perform in front of them and you know have that much support."

Mariajo Uribe is tied for second with Ruoning Yin and Lydia Ko. Nelly Korda is tied for seventh after nine holes.
