The PGA Tour has no policy on steroids.
Nothing is in the works, because no one has found anything that would help a golfer’s performance.
In fact, the only substance abuse policy on the PGA Tour books is a two-page statement from former commissioner Deane Beman in January 1992 that deals with recreational drugs, and alcohol as it relates to players’ conduct.
“There is a lot of power involved in golf, but more so feel and touch,” U.S. Open champion Retief Goosen said. “I don’t know if somebody took steroids how that would affect the game. I don’t think golf is that much a power sport as it is in other sports, like athletics or things like that, where there is such a small margin between the athletes.”
The only thing golf has tested lately is hot drivers, and that lasted about a month.
