PGA Tour Suspends ‘Little Fish’ Scott Stallings For Taking Banned Substance.

The PGA Tour has announced little known Scott Stallings has been suspended for three months after advising the Tour he had taken a substance on the Tour’s ‘banned list’.

The 2014 Farmers Insurance Open champion acknowledged his inadvertent error and accepted his suspension. He will be eligible to return on October 7, 2015.

As usual, the PGA Tour will not comment further on the suspension at this time.

“I discovered in February 2015 that I had inadvertently taken a supplement for the prior two months that was not permitted by the PGA Tour,”said Stallings.

“I did so on the recommendation of my physician due to chronic fatigue I had felt over a period of time – not in any way for performance enhancement.

“I immediately self-reported this fact to the PGA TOUR – consistent with my values and with the long tradition of self-reporting all rules violations on or off the golf course.

“I regret my inadvertent mistake in not doing my homework to know for sure what was on the list of permitted and non-performing enhancement items,”
