...now that the PGA tests for drugs, Tiger is going to have a tough time regaining his old dominance.
Nothing like making a mountain out of a mole hill.
There are some new tests for HGH but they are only using them in minor sports leagues right not to test them. I think he could still get around the HGH part but with added scrutiny on himself it might be tough to take anything.
There isn't a US professional sport that has adopted a testing protocol of hGH. I do remember reading several months ago that the World Anti-Doping Agency had developed a test, and it was in clinical trials. I imagine that those trials are over now, but I'm not sure.
In any event, I read just a few weeks that there still aren't any US professional sports testing for hGH, golf included. Of course, without a player's union, the PGA Tour could adopt such a testing regimen immediately, if they so desired.
I am sure the PGA will give him an exemption.
Yes TiHgHer is guilty as charged, but the PGA should fry for this. They built a whole new genre of golf course to take advantage of Tiger & I'm sure they were aware of what they were dealing with from the get go.
Can they test effectively for HGH?
Where does that nonsensical, unsubstantiated accusation come from?
