In June 2011 the Nederlandse Golf Federatie (NGF), the Netherlands Golf Federation, has reported an anti-doping violation against the Athlete after his A and B samples tested positive for the prohibited substances methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and Methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA).
The Athlete admitted he used ecstasy 3 days prior to the doping test, during the festivities on 29 and 30 April 2011. The Athlete wasn’t tested before and stated that he was unfamiliar with the anti-doping rules and anti-doping education.
Considering the circumstances and without intention to enhance sport performance the NGF Disciplinary Committee decides to impose a 1 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on 26 May 2011.
