Change Agent

Meanwhile, a probable Ryder Cup teammate, Boo Weekley, continued to struggle finding the sweet spot after vacationing between the U.S. and British Opens. He finished T-66 with Perry, but had no problems Friday upon being among those selected for a random drug test after his second round. Well, actually, there was a problem. "I had done my business, if you know what I mean, after 16 holes," Weekley drawled. "So, when I was done with 18, I had nothing left. I had to wait an hour and drink a bunch of liquids to get it done." Several of Weekley's peers have issues with the process, which is not performed in seclusion.

"Hey, I respect guys who think it's an invasion of privacy, but it don't bother me," Weekley went on. "I like that the tour is protecting what we got, only trying to make it better, not that I think there are any guys out here on drugs. Testing us will only prove we're clean. As for the way we gotta do it, heck, it ain't no different than going to the doctor. When you go to your doctor, you don't keep all your clothes on, do you? I don't, not with my doctor. If you get in a car wreck, they ain't gonna bring you to the hospital and then let you lie there with your pants on, are they? They ain't gonna be able to examine you that way, right? So I ain't got no complaints. I ain't got nothing to hide. I just had nothing to give until an hour or so after they asked."
