(Reuters) - Three-times PGA Tour winner Scott Stallings has been suspended for three months for violating the PGA Tour's anti-doping policy, the tour said on Tuesday.

The 30-year-old American, whose most recent victory on tour was at last year's Farmers Insurance Open, turned himself in as soon as he learned of the violation.

"I discovered in February 2015 that I had inadvertently taken a supplement for the prior two months that was not permitted by the PGA Tour," Stallings said in a statement released through the tour.
