This is what I'm using:

GO_ARCHIVE=$(curl -s 'https://go.dev/VERSION?m=text' | head -n 1).linux-arm64.tar.gz
GO_LINK="https://go.dev/dl/$GO_ARCHIVE"
wget $GO_LINK
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go && sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf $GO_ARCHIVE
rm $GO_ARCHIVE

Just change the linux and arm64 to suit your needs.
