Bubba Breaks The CBD Barrier In Golf Despite Recent PGA Tour Warning About Such Products

Todd Kelly reports for Golfweek on Bubba Watson signing with cbdMD to push cannabidiol-based products to deal with a variety of issues. .

“I was taking the product, I love the product and for me, you know, it’s all about safety,” Watson said in an interview with The Street. “So for me, on a performance level, I got to have safety, I’ve got to [take] drug tests, I’ve got to do all these things and to protect myself and be able to play competitive golf.”

The news comes as the vaunted MarijuanaMoment.net reported a recent warning by the PGA Tour that CBD products containing THC will put players in violation of their policies and that some CBD products may contain levels putting the player in risk of suspension.
