Dustin Johnson taking a break from golf

Weird.
He does seem prone to a shocker when he is in contention, wonder doors he suffer from stress, though it wouldn't appear so from his public persona.

Hope he comes back, seems like a good guy.

I always thought he looked a bit slumped over on the shoulders when playing but always just assumed that was just the way he is. Maybe it's nothing it's just he always looks like a man with a lot on his mind.


Hopefully nothing too serious going on as he is a fantastic athlete

Supposedly not golf related, unfortunately. So much temptation out there for young men with millions of dollars and no shortage of people keen to help them spend it. Get well soon, DJ!

Something tell's me Sky know what it is, some wild speculation over on twitter

Sky speculating disciplinary issues with PGA tour. We'll just have to wait and see.

Jason Sobel just retweeted this interview with Dustin from last December, scroll down to the last few questions

Was talking to a ET caddie today about this. He will definitely not be on the Ryder Cup team for the USA according to him.

I'm surprised he's used 'personal issues' as the reason for the break, normally it's an 'injury'.

Apparently he had an 'injury" before.

Well the tour should be treating everyone the same and making any violations public, if that is the case.

No judgement in this day and age, look at the train wrecks like Tom Watson who got over their issues and are loved.

Just Tom got his personal issues from a taxable product.

Lots of reading between the lines
Pun intended

Puns are not to be sniffed at on here

Story seems to be gathering speed - I'd say we'll know more tomorrow. Not good having all this speculation.

What's all this about Tom Watson, what was his train wreck?

Wasn't there rumours about Watson having an "affair"

He was married donkey's years to someone he grew up with then she filed for divorce out of the blue due to his "profession" then about a year later Watson was married to a woman who was just split from someone else on the tour.

I think Watsons kids cut him off too which is all very strange if it was just a straight forward marriage breakdown to which we are suppose to believe.

I'd say the lads could do what they wanted before the Internet - twitter - sky and Mail Online.


And Boards :P

Sure you can't even hit the ball 300 yards these days - the scandal of it.
