PGA of America Anti Doping Policy
The PGA of America recently announced that this year's PGA Championship and Ryder Cup will require players to abide by the Performance Enhancement Substance Policy and the Prohibited Substance List developed last year with other members of the World Golf Foundation. The PGA also announced its support of the PGA Tour's Anti Doping program which it will implement for the PGA Championship and Ryder Cups held in the United States. The PGA has adopted the Tour's Substance and Methods List, calling it the Prohibited Substance List, which will be adopted as a condition of competition for the PGA Championship and will be incorporated into the Captain's Agreement for the Ryder Cup. In support of the random testing protocol on the PGA Tour, the PGA of America will provide facilities for testing at each PGA Championship beginning with this year's event at Oakland Hills Country Club and each Ryder Cup conducted in the United States, beginning with the matches at Valhalla Golf Club.
