Default Steroids in professional golf?

http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/news/story?id=2940886

Interesting. I liked Tiger's response:
Tiger Woods, who last year said he would like to see the PGA Tour begin drug testing as quickly as possible, was asked Tuesday if he would be surprised if a golfer tested positive for drug use.
"If anything, probably out here it would be testing positive for maybe being hung over a little bit," Woods said. "But that's about it.

Nice.

Golf technology has pretty much made the use of steroids unnecessary. The axiom "drive for show; putt for dough" is what it's all about in golf.

Speaking of what happens away from the course, if you folks ever want a quick and fun read, try "The Green Road Home" by Michael Bamberger. Bamberger was a caddy for a number of years and has some great stories he tells about life on the tour as a caddy.
