Golfers bailing Rio because of doping tests

Call me a cynic, but the golfers that have bailed from the olympics seem to have a built in valid excuse, but if you look at the golfers who have bailed, and their physiques (as opposed to a Kuchar, Watson, Fowler, Reed), one could easily make the correlation between the IOC's stringent PED testing compared to the laughable tour tests. Guys like Rory, Day, Scott, etc. might take a lot longer to cleanse any banned substances. I know I will get the standard replies that PEDS don't help golfers....blah, blah, but seriously.....Actually work out without them. Your body is sore. You don't really heal as fast as with them. let alone golf at a high level with that amount of muscle recovery..these golfers who have bailed are suspicious to me much like the juiceball era in baseball in the 90's. All it takes its a little testosterone, and a guy who normally hits 35 dingers can hit 50 or even 60. You have a guy like Barry Bonds on the same level as Griffery Jr. hitting 20-30 more dingers a year. Same as a golf ball. A guy like Bubba naturally crushes the ball vs. a McIllroy or Day getting an extra 30-40 yards. The PGA needs to seriously look at their drug testing policy to have any credibility.
