Golf goes back further. The first international golf (and soccer) matches were between England and Scotland and they just kept doing it that way while adding more countries.

International tennis came later.

but even for individual events when they're technically not "playing for" a country, why are they still listed by country not all under the UK?

Because they started it that way and have different golf federations for England and Scotland. Tennis has one federation for the UK.
