LUPICA: Dustin Johnson drug situation shows etiquette of golf public relations

(FILES) This July 19, 2014 file photo shows US golfer Dustin Johnson as he watches his shot from the 1st tee during his third round, on day three of the 2014 British Open Golf Championship at Royal Liverpool Golf Course in Hoylake, north west England. US golfer Dustin Johnson, who announced July 31, 2014 he was ending his season immediately for personal reasons, is actually serving a six-month PGA Tour suspension after testing positive for cocaine, Golf.com reported on August 1, 2014. The website, citing an unnamed source, said Johnson has failed three drug tests, one for marijuana in 2009 and two for cocaine in 2012 and this year. The report says Johnson was previously suspended for the 2012 positive but the ban was never made public. The PGA Tour's drug test policy does not require any disciplinary actions against players who test positive for recreational drugs be announced. AFP PHOTO / PETER MUHLYPETER MUHLY/AFP/Getty Images It is no joke if Dustin Johnson, a rich young American star of golf, has a problem with recreational drugs and alcohol and his own dumb frat-boy behavior when he isn’t hitting golf balls out of sight.
