DP World Tour Suspends English Golfer Over Betting
LONDON, England – In a significant move, the DP World Tour has handed a three-month suspension to English golfer Chris Paisley following an investigation that uncovered violations of its betting regulations.
The 35-year-old Paisley is accused of placing bets on various golf tournaments, including those in which he was actively competing—an action strictly prohibited by the tour’s rules.
This suspension, announced on Tuesday, takes effect immediately and will last until October 25, 2023.
While Paisley retains the right to appeal this decision, he has yet to make any public statements regarding the situation.
The DP World Tour maintains a rigorous stance on betting practices; players found in violation face serious consequences ranging from fines and suspensions to potential lifetime bans.
Notably, this marks the second instance in recent months where a player from the DP World Tour has faced suspension for similar betting infractions. Back in December 2022, Italian golfer Edoardo Molinari received a two-month ban after being caught placing bets on golf events
