The court of arbitration for sport has handed down a stiff penalty in the 4 year long drug saga looming over the TPC.

Clubs were informed yesterday that the players (listed below) will not be eligable to play until November 2016, effectively ruling them out for the entire season.

The players will not only be ineligable to play, but will not be allowed to train or use club facilities during their suspension.

TPC has had in depth talks with all clubs and decided clubs with players suspended under this occurance will have the ability to treat these players as long term injury players and thus bring in one player for each player they have under suspension.

The selection of these players will occur after the conclusion of the 2016 draft, and at the end of the 2016 season the players brought in shall be released and the originals players will return to their respective clubs.

The order in which clubs will be allowed to apply for LTI repacements will be decided by each players 2015 average score and that orderw ill be announced in due course.
