Quote:

In advance of golf’s return to the Olympics next year in Rio de Janeiro, the golfers will be under the aegis of the World Anti­Doping Agency. The agency operates its testing program much differently from what golfers, especially those from the United States, have come to expect. Consider Kirk, whose first exposure to drug testing, he said, was during his freshman year at Georgia. Describing the N.C.A.A. protocol, he said, “They’d notify you the afternoon before, and you had to be there the next morning at 6 a.m. to give a sample.”
