Champions Tour to Test for Steroids?
June 26, 2007 by admin
According to a recent AP article, testing for performance-enhancing drugs could happen depending on what the PGA decides to do. Quoth Champions Tour President Rick George:
We’ll adopt whatever policies the PGA Tour does. I certainly don’t (think it’s a problem). But I think if the tour adopts a policy, it’s important that the Champions Tour adopt the same policy.
Although this probably is a prudent move on the part of the tour, it’s also a bit odd to think that steroids would even be an issue at that level. Then again, as spokesman Michael McPhillips notes, “We do use a lot of Advil out here.”
And everyone knows that once you start on the Advil, it’s only a matter of time before you hit the steroids…
