PGA Tour<\/a> said Mullinax co-operated fully with the investigation into his violation.<\/p>\n\u201cI take full responsibility for what happened,\u201d Mullinax wrote. \u201cAt the end of the day, it is my responsibility to understand and follow the PGA Tour\u2019s Anti-Doping Policy and all of its rules and regulations. I failed to do that, and that is on me.<\/p>\n
\u201cI recently used a medication to treat a condition I was originally diagnosed with in college without seeking approval under the Tour\u2019s Anti-Doping Policy.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy lack of knowledge is not an excuse. It was my responsibility to know the rules before taking any medication and I failed to do so. I want to be absolutely clear \u2013 I have never taken any substance with the intention of gaining a competitive advantage. Anyone who knows me knows how much I respect this game and the values it represents.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mullinax, who won the Barbasol Championship in 2022, will be eligible to return in January 2027. He has conditional status this year after finishing 150th in last season\u2019s FedEx Cup standings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The PGA Tour announced that it has suspended one of its players for violating its anti-doping rules.
