Green gets first darts drugs ban

[stubacca68]

Robbie Green has been banned for eight weeks after becoming the first darts player to fail a drugs test.
Green, from the Wirral, tested positive for marijuana after giving a sample in June at the UK Open in Bolton where he reached the quarter-finals.

Darts only introduced drug-testing this year and Green was only the eighth player to be tested by anti-doping agency UK Sport.

The 32-year-old was suspended by the Darts Regulation Authority.
