• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

Dustin Johnson

so he has a drug problem. Tiger woods cheated on his missus and Darren Clarke drinks excessively. All set bad examples but banning them won't help their problem.

He likes his wine and used to like his black stuff but be careful not to paint him incorrectly

Him and Woods maybe bad examples but taking part in illegal recreational drugs and already been banned once before because of it is a different kettle of fish and believe in the zero tolerance.

He earns vast amount of money on the back of golf and is there fore expect to follow their rules - people have the choice to take cocaine and when they make the incorrect choice they must be ready for the consequences of his actions
 
Society chooses to make arbitrary decisions between different drugs such as alcohol, nicotine, marijuana and cocaine.

It really is time we had a more educated debate than talk of "zero tolerance".
 
Thank god it was recreational drugs and we can bring our wrath down on him for doing something that does not effect his performance in any way whatsoever.

As for a moment I thought that a golfer had taken performance enhancing drugs. And as we all know that is impossible due to the strict testing regime that is in place and the fact that golfers would never do that.

When we won the Ryder cup did he not get smashed downing drink after drink on the balcony?
that was excessive. Setting a bad examples comes in many forms and binge drinking is a major problem too. So I stand by what I said, maybe I should have said drank as it was past tense. Either way he set that example.
 
So let's label him a Coke head & throw him off tour? Has he actually hurt anyone except himself?
Wonder who's wife he was at it with:confused:

Someone who is admitting having a cocaine problem to me is a coke head. Just a figure of speech really. But I never said throw him of tour. If u check previous post I made I said I hope he gets help

Both him and Woosnam downed a pint of the black stuff in celebration after the release and emotion of the whole weekend ! Binge drinking is a problem but I can see where Clark set an example of binge drinking ?!
 
Jesus, are you now telling me that golfers drink as well as take recreational drugs!!! Won't somebody think of the children!

I tell you what, I'm putting the parental lock on Sky Sports 4 just in case my 8 year old daughter accidentally switches over to a PGA tournament and before I know it she's be an alcoholic crack addict selling tricks in the rough parts of town.

They all drank more than one pint that day. I'm not saying I have a problem with it. I just believe that if I want to nitpick their are many of the sports stars that do things that aren't in the best interests of young fans. Jimenez puffing away whilst on the course when possible for example. Nothing wrong with it as such but not a great example either.
 
And now they smoke!!!! It's like the last days of sodom and gomorrah out there. But with more badly coordinated outfits.

It's slightly different than being banned twice for class a banned drugs.

That's not "nitpicking"

& he has done,you do know he's got a 6 month ban don't you Phil?? & he's taken the ban:confused:
At least you're consistent with the rubbish that you come out with.
So according to you-Pedophiles need help,People who bite others need help. But let's throw the book at some one who hasn't really hurt anyone & actually does need help:confused:
I'll await the PM from The Mod.

What, Paul Weller?

In your opinion. Has he done it in the limelight? I can't say I've seen any signs of it before today. So I'd imagine impressionable children are more likely to smoke or drink because of their idols than snort a line.

Ive stated red I think their all bad influences IMO. You don't like or agree that's fine. But i won't be changing my view at all. So I'll leave it there.

You're a very naughty boy! This is a serious subject and yet every reply you've given has me in stitches. What's even funnier is the serious debate goes on around them without an eyelid being bat :lol:

Not read the links and reports. I like DJ and perhaps his frailty adds to that - he's human...he messed up...that's life and not sure his mess up is so bad.

I am being serious, I think the role model thing is vastly overblown and people do not copy golfers just because they are very good at hitting a white ball into hole.

Anyway, I've had my say so I'm off now to bang a waitress and drive into a fire hydrant, night all.
