This, is what we call the Paulina Gretzky Effect.
Golf.com with one of my favorite exclusive reports perhaps of all-time:
Dustin Johnson is serving a six-month suspension from the PGA Tour after testing positive for cocaine, a source has told Golf.com.
According to the source, Johnson has failed three drug tests: one for marijuana in 2009 and two for cocaine, in 2012 and 2014. He was previously suspended for the 2012 failed test, but that suspension was never made public. Under the PGA Tour’s drug-testing policies, the Tour is not required to announce any disciplinary actions against players who test positive for recreational drugs.
Johnson’s conduct has long been a topic of conversation among close observers of the Tour. He is often seen in bars near his home in Jupiter, Fla., and is also known to have had a sexual indiscretion with at least one wife of a PGA Tour player.
And:
!!!
Anyway, it turns out Dustin Johnson’s personal leave ostensibly to hang out and do drugs with Paulina Gretzky is actually more like a six-month suspension… to hang out and do drugs with Paulina Gretzky. Tomato-tomahto. Either way, there’s probably going to be drugs and Paulina Gretzky. And probably someone else’s wife. Tough life, Dustin’s got.
