PGA Tour Issues Six-Month Suspension to Golfer Trey Mullinax

The PGA Tour announced a six-month ban for professional golfer Trey Mullinax after a positive test for a substance prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency. The suspension follows the Tour’s anti-doping policy, which has been in effect since 2008. Mullinax’s ineligibility period ends a week before the start of the 2027 season, allowing him to return to competition at that time.

Since its inception in 2008, the PGA Tour has suspended nine players for doping violations, with Mullinax becoming the first suspension since Byeong Hun An in October 2023, who tested positive for an over-the-counter cough syrup containing a banned ingredient. The program aims to preserve the integrity of professional golf by enforcing strict compliance with WADA-listed substances.
