Gary Player alleges drug use in golf | Tours & News | Golf.com
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (AP) — Gary Player put steroids at the forefront of the British Open on Wednesday, saying golf has its head buried in a bunker if it thinks the sport is clean and he knows of one player using performance-enhancing drugs.
The nine-time major champion urged golf organizations to start random testing.
"It's absolutely essential that we do that," Player said at Carnoustie, where he won the British Open in 1968. "We're dreaming if we think it's not going to come into golf."
Player says it already has.
"Whether it's HGH, whether it's Creatine or whether it's steroids, I know for a fact that some golfers are doing it," he said.
Asked how he knew for certain, he said one golfer told him.
"I took an oath prior to him telling me — I won't tell you where — but he told me what he did, and I could see this massive change in him," Player said. "And somebody else told me something, that I also promised I wouldn't tell, that verified others had done it."

this just in: professional sports players who earn millions of dollars are trying to gain a competitive edge.
This just in, also...
"ANY" athlete competeing in a strength oriented "real" sport at a world or national level,
is probably using drugs

That is so uneducated, but not sure I would blame Player.
The media has created this "performance-enhancing' circus, and Player is in his 70s, so he is just citing what he has read. Besides creatine is banned in Olympic competition. Does any one know if it is banned in the NFL, NBA, MLB?
How do you check if someone's using Creatine?


Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
